First of the Month

I have a collection of Norman Rockwell prints and I thought of this one today.
At the end of each month Melody and I go over our budget so this a familiar sight in our household.
This print first appeared on the cover of The Saturday Evening Post on Feb. 26, 1921

[KWind]

Nice print! You and Melody should recreate it yourselves!

[Anita Campbell]

Haha! Yes, I agree with KWind!

[Jo Ann Bellone]

I can relate

[Jnadonza]

Nice

[Louise & Ken]

In art school, the teachers were a bit dismissive of Rockwell as "just an illustrator", but he's an icon and captured wonderful slices of life that we all relate to! Thanks for sharing this!

[Terry]

I love the prints

[Sian B]

Wonderful!

[Tony]

Beautiful old print, perfectly captured.

[Chris]

I'm with KWind on this! get down the fancy dress shop and give it a go. I love the Rockwell prints.

Glad the couple in the print don't seem too unhappy. I like Rockwell too.

[Carole Imes]

Fabulous print! I love Rockwell's work. I have the 4 seasons plate series with the young boy and his dog.

[Allison Williams]

John and I went to a Norman Rockwell exhibit at the National Gallery in Washington DC. The collection brought back memories of my childhood reading The Saturday Evening Post. Thanks for the memory!

[Graham Thresher]

A wonderful shot

[Michelle C.]

I love Normal Rockwell prints. I love how he portrayed this couple... smiling as they look at the budget. Wishful thinking, perhaps?

[Chris Johnson]

Splendid shot, I love Normal Rockwell's prints as well! I can imagine you and your well doing the same as this couple :)

[Katie]

[Carole Imes]

@bkbinthecity No, I haven't. They need to be re-hung in the den, and I am missing one plate hanger (the other broke). They used to be in the kitchen and I rearranged everything on the walls there a few years ago. Reminds me to check on e-Bay and see if I can find a plate hanger. I can't find one in the stores :-)

[Karin Hirsch]

Wonderful, do you have these prints on your walls?
