NORMAN ROCKWELL:  Four Seasons 1974

"GRANDPA and ME"

Set of Four Plates by GORHAM FINE CHINA

Norman Rockwell, "America's Best Loved Artist", painted many series of illustrations portraying the Four Seasons.  Each series showed a person (or two people) engaged in activities appropriate to the various seasons of the year.  Some of these series were created as front cover illustrations for the Saturday Evening Post; others were done as calendar art.  Cover illustrations and calendar art are two of the many areas in which Norman Rockwell excelled.

For 1974, Gorham selected the series entitled Grandpa and Me, which first appeared on a 1948 calendar by Brown & Bigelow.  Each plate is 10.5 inches in diameter, banded with gold, and features a high quality, full color rendition of one of the Four Seasons in the series.
