Original artwork description:
An illustrator for most of his life, Rockwell created 323 covers for The Saturday Evening Post over a 40-year span. Painting lighthearted images, he avoided the desolate and bleak parts of life, saying he wanted to “paint life as I would like it to be.” One of his many famous works, “Study for Artist Facing Blank Canvas,” also known simply as “Deadline". I juxtaposed Rockwell's painting with an untitled painting attributed to Dirk van Baburen. He was Dutch; he was born about 1595, he spent his youth in Utrecht and before 1615 he went to Rome. It was there that he had a chance to get familiar with the art of Caravaggio and his followers.
