In Honor of His Birthday Norman Rockwell Earns a GOOGLE Doodle

Today is great American artist, Norman Rockwell’s birthday. To honor him, the search engine, Google, replaced its regular logo with one of Rockwell’s Saturday Evening Post covers as their “Google Doodle” on its homepage. For more than four decades, Rockwell painted small-town scenes and idyllic portraits for the covers of the Saturday Evening Post. "Little Spooners," which is the cover Google used, was printed on April 24, 1926, and was among his most popular.

The King of Prussia Mall is currently housing the largest Norman Rockwell exhibit in the world through March 14, 2010. This 10,000 sq. foot interactive, exhibit features a special collection of Norman Rockwell’s Saturday Evening Post covers, illustrations, paintings and sculptures.
