A Norman Rockwell Thanksgiving

In looking back over various Thanksgiving posts through the years, I see that I’ve included everything from a nostalgic family tale to a slideshow of painted turkey feathers. But one thing I haven’t done is feature pictures from my favorite artist, Norman Rockwell. Although he was known for all kinds of heart-warming illustrations, he was especially fond of those depicting Thanksgiving scenes. Many of them featured themes that were relevant during the war years, but most were timeless.
