THE ART CONNOISSEUR (Pollack style) by Norman Rockwell SEP 1962 Cover Print
This is a print taken from a vintage art book. Measures 14 x 10" inches. The print may/not have an image/text on the back.
Comes unframed.
FYI: "The Connoisseur, a Norman Rockwell painting , appeared on the cover of The Saturday Evening Post published January 13, 1962. The painting inside this painting, a familiar device Rockwell had used before in his stories, is actually a painting that Rockwell did in the Pollack style. He painted the dribbles and drabbles just to be included in this painting. The man shown appreciating the painting is portrayed as a typical art lover, and probably an art owner as well. The incongruity in the painting is that the art lover is standing too close to the painting to be able to see the whole composition. Maybe he is looking at some of the individual paint sprinkles. The painting is bound to look better from farther away than this fellow is standing.
He is a dapper fellow, well dressed in a suit, hat and gloves. He is holding a program from the exhibit he is viewing."
