Come and Get It! by Norman Rockwell

Come and Get It! by Norman Rockwell

Norman Rockwell
1894-1978 | American

Come and Get It!

Signed "Norman Rockwell" (lower left)
Oil on canvas

Norman Rockwell's decades-long collaboration with the Boy Scouts of America produced some of the most iconic images in American art. Created for the 1970 Brown & Bigelow Boy Scouts calendar, Come and Get It! is among the largest of his paintings and embodies the spirit of this beloved American institution. Rockwell brilliantly captures the excitement of camp life as Scouts eagerly gather for mealtime, creating a scene filled with warmth, energy and youthful camaraderie.

Rockwell’s relationship with the Boy Scouts of America spanned more than six decades, during which his calendar illustrations and contributions to Boys' Life became familiar images in American homes. He famously accepted no royalties for these commissions, assigning all reproduction rights to the organization as a reflection of his admiration for the values it represented. Come and Get It! appears in numerous important publications, including the 1970 cover of Scouting magazine, the ninth edition of the Official Boy Scout Handbook, Norman Rockwell's World of Scouting and the artist's catalogue raisonné.

Norman Rockwell stands as America's most beloved illustrator, whose work transcended commercial art to become a defining visual narrative of 20th-century American life. His Brown & Bigelow calendar series (1948-1964) ranks alongside his Saturday Evening Post covers as works that elevated him from celebrated illustrator to national institution. Rockwell's extraordinary ability to find profound meaning in everyday moments earned him the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1977, the highest civilian honor bestowed upon American citizens. Museums worldwide, including the Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge, Massachusetts, preserve and celebrate his legacy as an artist who documented American values, aspirations and the tender moments that unite us all.
