Norman Rockwell

by Collier Schon

Shows Rockwell's position within American artistic and social traditions as the premier painter of home-and-hearth America... Filled with the warmth of people interacting with people, which is so strangely absent in the contemporaneous work of, say, Edward Hopper. Rich with background information about the movements and style that affected Rockwell.

3.5 - I really enjoyed learning about Rockwell’s background and commitment to his craft, as well as some history behind a few of his iconic works. 0 stars for the present tense verb style of the writing, though. Ugh.
