1917
Before he became the beloved illustrator of American life, a young Norman Rockwell created this energetic sheet music cover for George M. Cohan's iconic World War I anthem, 'Over There.' Four khaki-clad soldiers are captured mid-chorus around a glowing campfire, their mouths wide open in passionate song while one strums a banjo. Rockwell's signature realism brings a lively, almost theatrical energy to the scene, perfectly capturing the patriotic spirit of 1917. It is fascinating to see the early commercial work of an artist who would later define the visual identity of the 20th-century United States.
