"Statue of Liberty"
 | ||||
| "Statue of Liberty" by Norman Rockwell (Courtesy of Norman Rockwell Museum) |
Last year I learned of a beautiful oil painting by Norman Rockwell when I attended a lecture given by Tom Daly from the Norman Rockwell Museum (in Stockbridge, MA.) "The Statue of Liberty" is a different view of our beloved Lady Liberty.
On July 6, 1946 this was the cover of The Saturday Evening Post. The men of different backgrounds are all working together to repair her torch.
The oil painting was once owned by the film director Steven Spielberg. In 1994 he donated it to the official White House Collection. One day last year while watching the national news on t.v., I saw this beautiful work on display in President Barack Obama's Oval Office.
What a beautiful painting!
Have a Safe &
Happy Fourth of July!!!
Enjoy!
