EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, Norman Rockwell, the renowned American painter and illustrator, is seen seated next to his model, Mr. Van Veckten, at the New School of Design located at 1680 Broadway in the vibrant and creative decade of the 1920s. The image transports us back in time to an era when the art world was brimming with innovation and experimentation. Norman Rockwell, dressed in a simple sweater and slacks, exudes an air of focused intensity as he engages with his model, Mr. Van Veckten. The model, with his confident and relaxed posture, returns the artist's gaze, creating an intriguing dynamic between the two figures. The bench they sit on, with its worn-out appearance, adds an authentic touch to the scene, emphasizing the hands-on nature of the artistic process. The New School of Design, which opened its doors in 1919, was a hub for artistic exploration and learning. Rockwell, who began his studies there in the late 1910s, would go on to become one of the most celebrated artists of the 20th century. This photograph captures a moment in time when the seeds of his artistic genius were being sown, surrounded by the creative energy of the New School of Design and the inspiration provided by his models, like Mr. Van Veckten. The photograph, with its historical significance and evocative atmosphere, offers a glimpse into the rich artistic heritage of the 1920s and the formative years of Norman Rockwell's illustrious career.
