"'Normal Rockwell's subject is average America'...These words from the text by Thomas S. Buechner, distinguished director of the Brooklyn Museum, explain Rockwell's enduring charm. And this volume, with is superb reproductions, including two, three, and even four-page spreads and foldouts in full color, finally does justice to an artist whose works have most often been seen only in the impermanent mediums of magazines and calendars. The author discusses Rockwell's life and career, from his early training, through the development of his mature style, to his recent interest in the major social issues of our time...Thanks to his exhaustive study of Rockwell and his work, Buechner is able to draw a lively word-picture of an extraordinarily interesting personality -- who also happens to be a unique phenomenon in the history of art -- and places him in the great tradition of the story-telling artists of the past...This rich collection provides an unparalleled panorama of nearly sixty years of American social history, seen from Rockwell's enormously popular point of view. A full index of the works by category helps to make the volume an invaluable addition to the history of American illustration." -- Book jacket.

Norman Rockwell spent seven decades capturing the essence of the American spirit on canvas. His paintings, which graced more than three hundred covers of The Saturday Evening Post, created the symbols of the nation during World War II, depicted beautiful women who still retained their girl-next-door qualities, showed boys and girls embroiled in the delights and disappointments of childhood and young lovers sipping ice cream sodas, and celebrated the joys of family gatherings. But most of all, Rockwell's pictures portrayed the strength and compassion of small-town America, earning him a unique position as both a storyteller and a chronicles of American history. Adults and children alike recognize Norman Rockwell's name and paintings as the embodiment of all that is positive in the American character. Norman Rockwell, who painted from 1912 to 1976, illustrated not only magazine covers, but also children's books, boy scout calendars, and advertisements for corporations and the U.S. government. He also portrayed all of the major presidential candidates from 1952 to 1972, as well as statesmen, actors, and popular heroes of the day. Norman Rockwell is a Rockwell retrospective, featuring work from almost every year of his artistic career. From an early series depicting the awkwardness and exhilaration of young Boy Scouts to his later series illustrating the Four Freedoms--Freedom of Speech, Freedom of Worship, Freedom from Want, and Freedom from Fear--for which America was fighting in World War II, to his poignant and authentic images of Americans at play, at work, and in their homes, this collection offers a truly spectacular and diverse array of full-color reproductions of Rockwell's work. Norman Rockwell allows the Rockwell fan to trace the evolution of the artist and his craft, year by year, through his paintings, his sketches, and photographs of him at work. This volume also contains a discussion of Rockwell's life, "A Great American Success Story," and a section describing the precise and deliberate way he created his paintings. In addition, Norman Rockwell features a preface by Maureen Hart Hennessey, curator of The Normal Rockwell Museum at Stockbridge. This collection of Rockwell's work, full of his most popular paintings--as well as much of his lesser-known work--is sure to delight people of all ages

Norman Rockwell’s tremendously successful, prolific career as a painter and illustrator has rendered him a twentieth-century American icon. However, the very popularity and accessibility of his idealized, nostalgic depictions of middleclass life have caused him to be considered not a serious artist but a “mere illustrator”–a disparagement only reinforced by the hundreds of memorable covers he drew for The Sunday Evening Post. Symptomatic of critics’ neglect is the fact that Rockwell has never before been the subject of a serious critical biography. Based on private family archives and interviews and publishes to coincide with a major two-year travelling retrospective of his work, this book reveals for the first time the driven workaholic who had three complicated marriages and was a distant father —so different from the loving, all-American-dad image widely held to this day. Critically acclaimed author Laura Claridge also breaks new ground with her reappraisal of Rockwell’s art, arguing that despite his popular sentimental style, his artistry was masterful, complex, and far more manipulative than people realize.
