Notes: Norman Rockwell’s Love Song, which was reproduced as an illustration in the December 1926 issue of Ladies Home Journal, presents one of this popular artist’s major themes: youth contrasted with old age. A young girl listens wistfully as two elderly men play the flute and the clarinet. Leaning against the metronome is a music sheet indicating the tune’s-and the painting’s-title, “The Love Song.” Rockwell, an avid collector of antique maps, added an old map to the scene, enhancing its quaint setting.
