520 |a "Before the stars of radio, television, and motion pictures captured the American imagination, book and magazine illustrators were the popular heroes of their day. Among this celebrated group, Norman Rockwell emerges supreme, remaining America's most beloved artist even years after the passing of the golden age of illustration. Rockwell's art consistently touched themes that transcend fashion and events and tapped the very wellspring of the American character. It is a well-known fact that Normal Rockwell drew upon his immediate environment for the subjects of his paintings. The people and events in his life were people and events in his illustrations. But who are the people who paraded through the artist's canvases over the years? Here, for the first time, the world of Normal Rockwell is presented as he saw it."--Page [2] of jacket.
