Summary: | This abundantly illustrated book reveals the entire scope of Rockwell's work as a draftsman. It reproduces the full sequence of preliminary drawings (and reference photographs) that led up to some of his most famous Saturday Evening Post covers--and it also presents a generous sampling of his standalone drawings, many of them rarely published. The text, by curators at the Norman Rockwell Museum, illuminates and contextualizes the different aspects of Rockwell's drawing practice.
