Description: DISCOVERING SANTA by Norman Rockwell FYI: " Cover illustration for The Saturday Evening Post, December 29, 1956. "Rockwell Paints an Unexpected Christmas Discovery. In Rockwell’s classic Christmas scene, a boy makes an astonishing discovery of mistaken identities and big red coats. For Christmas of 1956, Rockwell captured a moment of truth in a young boy’s life. While snooping in his parent’s bedroom, he comes across a familiar suit and puts two and two together. The result is an expression of shock and disillusionment that Rockwell made so vivid, you can feel it rising from the page. But Rockwell wasn’t content to present just a comic scene. He filled the frame with details to build atmosphere and reward close attention. Note how he captured the wood grain of the dresser — the nicks, dings, and stains that make a piece of furniture almost a member of the family. Then there’s the twine that secured the box with Dad’s suit and beard and the mothballs that have rolled across the carpet. Rockwell even went to the effort of including the open door through which junior snuck in, the stair rails beyond, even a glimpse of the house next door — details only a dedicated artist would include." This is a print taken from a vintage art book. Measures 15 x 11" inches. The print may/not have an image/text on the back. Comes unframed. About the Artist: "Norman Rockwell paintings are synonymous with the comforts and life of a small town. From landscapes to cute puppies to curious boys, his work will take you back to a simpler time when life moved slower, and neighbors knew one another.
