Norman Rockwell’s Dogs

The Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge, Massachusetts is a revelation to Dog Lady. Not only is the museum situated in a beautiful glade with astounding views of the Berkshire Mountains but the showcased artwork — painted by the prolific Rockwell, an illustrator and portraitist of the 20th Century — evokes times gone by and times of our lives. A featured exhibit, “It’s A Dog’s Life: Norman Rockwell Paints Man’s Best Friend,” is lovely to look at because the dogs are just there, woven in to the pictures, not calling out for attention — the way dogs do.
