Description

Norman Rockwell's autobiography offers a unique glimpse into the life and artistic process of one of America's most beloved artists. With wit, humanity, and self-deprecating humor, Rockwell recounts his New York City boyhood, apprenticeship days, first visits to prominent publications, and adventures abroad. The Definitive Edition restores the original 1960 text, along with playful vignettes that head each chapter, and features over 150 of Rockwell's paintings and drawings. A new introduction by Abigail Rockwell adds reference value, while an illustrated chronology and annotated bibliography provide further insight into the artist's work. This comprehensive volume is a valuable source on Norman Rockwell's life and art, making it a must-have for anyone interested in his work.
