About the Artwork

Saturday Evening Post cover, April 11, 1942.

Norman Rockwell's fourth Willie Gillis cover for the Saturday Evening Post. Here, Willie Gillis is presented in a situation that would have guaranteed popular appeal when it was published. Millions of Americans had brothers, sons, grandsons, sweethearts, or neighbors in uniform at the time. Rockwell's painting is a nicely executed treatment of a standard wartime theme.
