"His First Pencil" - 1919 also known as: "Smiling Storekeeper and Small Boy"
After more than a half a century, Norman Rockwell remains one of America's most beloved illustrators. Today, his work is esteemed for capturing the very essence of American life. Rockwell's artistry is superbly evident in this original oil on canvas, which is one of several commissioned by the Joseph Dixon Crucible Company in the 1920's. This image was used in a back to school advertisement where the copy states, "My dad told me to to get a 'Ti-con-der-oga' pencil. He writes with one in his office and says it's the best pencil he ever had." In reflecting on his father's work, Thomas Rockwell stated, "My father never missed an opportunity to elevate the common event to allegory...here the timeless transfer from age to youth is depicted."
