Faithful Friends

A delightful gift book celebrating the key role of man’s best friend in the life and work of America’s greatest illustrator

 

Rockwell's dogs—Raleigh the German shepherd, Butch the springer spaniel, and Pitter the beagle mix—were often integral to his art. He could convey emotion through them, like a soldier's return or a college farewell. Faithful Friends gives 50 of his finest canine paintings, drawings, and reference photos. Plus, unseen photos of Rockwell's family. A text dives into his home and studio, showing his life with dogs.

 

This attractive little volume will appeal to art lovers and dog lovers alike.
