Norman Rockwell (American, 1894-1978), "`At the Vets` (Study for the March 29, 1952 Cover of The Saturday Evening Post)", charcoal on paper laid on card, monogrammed lower right, inscribed "Best wishes to my friend / Dr. Henry Cooper, cordially Norman Rockwell" lower margin and initialed and inscribed "Sketch for / figure on Post Cover / NR" en verso, 18 1/2 in. x 8 3/8 in., framed. Provenance: Estate of James Fenimore Cooper IV. Through his illustrations, Norman Rockwell (American, 1894-1978) became as familiar to the American public as the iconic images that he created. Perhaps Rockwell`s most celebrated works were covers produced for The Saturday Evening Post. In his covers, Rockwell captured a wide range of topics relating to the social and cultural changes of the time. During the course of his tenure at the Post, Rockwell created over 300 covers, including "At the Vets", the cover illustration for the March 29, 1952 edition, for which the present work is a study. This poignant image of a young boy sitting patiently as he waits to bring his injured dog to visit the veterinarian is signed and dedicated by the artist "to my friend Dr. Henry Cooper." Dr. Henry Sage Fenimore Cooper (b. 1895 Albany, NY- d.1984 Cooperstown, NY) was a noted surgeon in New York City. Dr. Cooper graduated from Yale University; following his service in World War I, he attended Harvard Medical School. During his career, Dr. Cooper served as an associate attending surgeon at Presbyterian Hospital and an associate clinical professor at the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Columbia University, where he was known for his emphasis on humanism in training of physicians. In 1925, Dr. Cooper along with the support of Stephen C. Clark, Sr., the philanthropist and art collector, reopened the Basset Hospital in Cooperstown, NY, a community founded by his ancestors. The Basset Hospital became one of the country`s leading rural research and teaching hospitals. Upon his death, Dr. Cooper was trustee emeritus of the Hospital and had been its president for 50 years.
