@painting_exp3rt: The Runaway — Norman Rockwell, 1958 A kid on a stool. Bundle on a stick. He’s running away from home. The trooper doesn’t lecture him. He just leans in, same posture, like they’re two guys at a counter. Rockwell’s real neighbor posed as the cop. An 8-year-old named Ed Locke posed as the runaway. They stayed friends for life. #painting #art #History #foryou
