Norman Rockwell 332 Magazine Covers

This full-sized album of Saturday Evening Post covers captures everyday events and historic moments in American history.

Although technically Norman Rockwell was an academic painter, he had the eye of a photographer and, as he became a mature artist, he used this eye to give us a picture of America that was familiar — astonishingly so — and at the same time unique. Rockwell best expressed this vision of America in his justly famous cover illustrations for magazines like The Saturday Evening Post. 332 of these cover paintings, from beloved classics like “Marbles Champion” to lesser-known gems like “Feeding Time,” are reproduced in stunning full-colour in this large-format volume, which is sure to be treasured by art lovers everywhere.

Christopher Finch’s books include the bestsellers Norman Rockwell’s America, The Art of Walt Disney, and Rainbow, a biography of Judy Garland, which was turned into a motion picture for NBC television. His other books have dealt with various aspects of contemporary painting and popular culture.
