Norman Rockwell Remembered

Painter and illustrator Norman Rockwell created more than 4,000 original pieces of artwork, as well as illustrations for 40 books. His works reflect American life and people, as showcased in his paintings that graced The Saturday Evening Post for many years. In his later years, Rockwell produced a series of paintings on racism for Look magazine.
