@thegaze_: ❤️ Cover art in the 40s and 50s. It wasn’t made to be hung in a museum, but if you ask me, it belongs in one. Together with many other great artists, Norman Rockwell and John Falter each contributed a ton of covers for the Saturday Evening Post. But they weren’t just selling magazines, they were capturing the essence of American life, creating little images that, if you look at them today, are oozing with nostalgia. Love it.
