1 Answer
Why is Norman Rockwell famous?
Norman Rockwell is famous for his work as an artist. In fact, he is among the most revered painters of the 20th century. His figurative and portrait paintings reflect an innocent and idyllic America described by the artist as "life as I would like it to be." For nearly 50 years, he illustrated the covers of The Saturday Evening Post in a rich and emotive style that gave distinctive personalities to his imagined characters. In total, Norman Rockwell created more than 4,000 works of art over the course of his life. On 1stDibs, explore a collection of Norman Rockwell art.
