Artist Name: NORMAN ROCKWELLTitle: "STOCK EXCHANGE QUOTES"Print size: 11" x 15" Release Date: POST Cover January 18, 1930 "Released only a couple of months after the great stock market crash of October, 1929 , The most catastrophic stock market crash in the history of the United States, this cover would have carried a topical message for contemporary readers of the POST. The device of having all the figures turned away from us, their faces hidden, has the effect o...f emphasizing the extent to which they are studying. In reality, the entire nation was watching the progress of the stock market at this time, hoping for a miraculous recovery. Mr. Rockwell was so upset about the state of the economy, he painted the red-shirted grocery boy with three legs!" *note: On May 15th, 1943, at the Rockwell family home in Arlington, Vermont, a passing motorist noticed fire coming from Norman's painting studio at about 1 a.m. in the morning. They began blasting the car horn to alert the family, but it was no use. The entire contents were lost: camera equipment, art supplies, irreplaceable reference material, sketches, and many of his paintings, were gone. Many of the lost paintings could only be reproduced from the actual Saturday Evening Post magazine, using the best-preserved copies that could be found. This accounts for the small defects found in some of his works (including this one) that were created prior to May of 1943.*** The digital watermark in the image (NormanRockwells.com) is NOT on the actual print! **This is a beautiful vintage print on nice paper.
