Print of "Family Tree" signed "Norman Rockwell". Ink signature appears to the lower right of the art, which served as "Saturday Evening Post" cover art for the 24 October 1959 edition. Rockwell's depiction of a freckled boy's family tree converges at one point, with his parents apparently sharing a common ancestor as third cousins. Rockwell devotes nearly an entire chapter in his memoir, "Norman Rockwell, My Adventures as an Illustrator" to discussing his process in creating this piece for the "Post". Measures 18.75" x 24.75". Pinholes to corners and minor foxing, with two light stains in the lower left quarter, else near fine.
