Comment(s): Norman Percevel Rockwell was a 20th-century American painter and illustrator. His works enjoy a broad popular appeal in the United States for their reflection of American culture. Rockwell is most famous for the cover illustrations of everyday life scenarios he created for "The Saturday Evening Post" magazine for more than four decades. This image is also known as 'Gary Cooper as the Texan' and 'Movie Star Being Made Up', and was the cover illustration for 'The Saturday Evening Post' of May 24, 1930. Rockwell was impressed by his model, writing that "My model…was Gary Cooper. He was already a very well-known actor at the time. He posed for me in Hollywood for three days and worked as conscientiously as any model I ever had. Everyone on the lot was crazy about him, and I could see why." Arthur L. Guptill, 'Norman Rockwell, Illustrator.' In this image, Rockwell plays with the stereotype of the manly cowboy by showing a makeup artist putting lipstick on Cooper. The thickly painted canvas reinforces the theme of cosmetics, and highlights how magazines strived to glamorize movie stars for their covers. Printed by the Jaffe Press.
