Details

This lot features a set of three historical black-and-white photographs documenting Norman Rockwell alongside significant figures from his personal and professional life.

• Left: Norman Rockwell with Louie Lamone, his longtime studio assistant and photographer who worked with him from 1953 to 1976.

• Center: Rockwell with his second wife, Mary Rockwell, in the studio. They are pictured before a large canvas, which appears to be a study for a ballerina-themed composition.

• Right: A candid shot of Norman Rockwell with Colonel Harland Sanders. The two famously met in 1973 when Rockwell was commissioned to paint the Colonel's portrait. These items serve as a compelling visual record of the artist's inner circle and celebrity interactions. These items originate from the Norman Rockwell Museum of the South.
