A look at Norman Rockwell's America

Dan and Christine caught the traveling exhibit "American Chronicle: The Art of Norman Rockwell," on the final weekend of its installation at the Newark Museum of Art.

The exhibit presented a broad selection of the artist's work, spanning his entire career. Highlights were a collection of all 323 of his Saturday Evening Post covers and a look at the process of research and revisions that went into the creation of Murder in Mississippi, one of Rockwell's most pointed pieces of social commentary.

Here's a link to a slideshow of some of the pictures that were in the exhibit. They belong to the collection of the Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge, Mass.
