Rockwell is (in my not particularly humble opinion) a VERY underrated painter -- just because he earned his living in "illustration". But so did N.C. Wyeth and Howard Pyle - two of my favorite American artists.

He lived in that neck of the woods - in the Berkshires, IIRC - so I'm sure he saw some of those local musicales.

I printed the picture and showed it to my husband. His dad is long gone and the picture made him so happy.

So again, thanks more than you can realize.
