Is there any artist today who is as well-beloved as Norman Rockwell?

Is there any mass-circulation publication that would showcase an artist’s works as the Saturday Evening Post did Rockwell’s?

I always liked Norman Rockwell’s art a lot. Nobody was as good as he was in depicting American life on the boundary between what it was like and what it should have been like.

Click on Saturday Evening Post Christmas covers and Norman Rockwell’s Christmas for more images.

Thanks for sharing! The Saturday Evening Post covers were the best, and always a great snapshot of society at the time.
