This is an illustration, which Rockwell began in the
1950s, yet did not finish until the 1960s. To bring the picture up to date,
he added a 1960s car to each end of Main Street.
The Old Corner House, the first home of the Norman
Rockwell Museum, can be seen at the far-left side of the picture. On the far
right a little red building is nestled in the trees. This was Rockwell's
studio, and it was moved from downtown Stockbridge, to the current Museum
site in 1986. |

The large white building on the right (which appears
dark) is the Red Lion Inn, one of the oldest inns found in America. It was
closed in the wintertime because, in those days, it had no central-heating
system.
This picture is very popular today and is thought of as
depicting a typical rural New England town. Stockbridge itself hasn't
changed very much over the years, which you'll see if you visit Main Street.
Yet even if the town itself doesn't change much, the cars certainly do, as
Rockwell himself discovered. This painting shows such 1950s cars as Ford
station wagons, Chevrolet sedans and coupes, a Pontiac Silver Streak, Dodge
coupes, and a 1960s Buick Riviera. Today Main Street is often lined with
Volvos, minivans, pickup trucks and SUVs. If you visit Stockbridge, take a
walk down Main Street and see what other changes you notice.
Stockbridge Main Street at Christmas shows us the story
of a village alive with holiday bustle. People are involved in so many
different activities. Let your eyes "walk" down Main Street and pick out all
the different things that are going on. There is one group of people
unconcerned with holiday preparations—they've decided to enjoy the winter
day and the freedom of playing outside!
"I just love Stockbridge," exclaimed Norman Rockwell, of
the town that was home for the last 25 years of his life. "I mean,
Stockbridge is the best of America, the best of New England." It was here
that Rockwell painted some of his most celebrated pictures.
