Norman Rockwell Basic Art - Thryft
Norman Rockwell Basic Art - Thryft

Norman Rockwell's nostalgic Americana in art.

If you feel a pull towards the quintessential American life of days past, this book might just speak to you. It’s not just the art that tells a story; it's Rockwell's capacity to capture the nation's heart across decades. Flip through the pages, and you might find a little piece of the America you've heard of, or remember fondly, in each illustration.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

The real Americans: The simple charm of everyday life, once upon a time Since his work is categorized as illustration and was most famously featured on the cover of the Saturday Evening Post, fine art critics were slow to acknowledge the importance of Norman Rockwell (1894-1978) as true artist, though his work was enormously popular during his lifetime and has endured as a crucial element in America's perception of itself in the 20th century. Through the Roaring Twenties, the Great Depression, World War II, the 1950s and 60s, Rockwell illustrations were a part of daily life, showing, as he once said, "the America I knew and observed to others who might not have noticed." About the Series:
Each book in TASCHEN's Basic Art series features:

a detailed chronological summary of the life and oeuvre of the artist, covering his or her cultural and historical importance
a concise biography
approximately 100 illustrations with explanatory captions
