This painting was only one of 47 Norman Rockwell Literary Digest covers; here is the list of more Norman Rockwell Literary Digest scans.
Here is the complete list of all Norman Rockwell magazine covers. Mother, daughter and son are all lined up in one pew this Easter Sunday. Brother is in the background and is holding his hymnal lower than his pewmates in the picture's main emphasis. The main emphasis of this picture is Mother and Daughter, just as the title suggests. Both mother and daughter are dressed in Easter finery. Both are wearing new dresses bought especially for the occaison. Both are wearing Easter bonnets. Although the bonnets do not match each other, they match their respective outfits wonderfully.
Mother and daughter bear a family resemblance. Did Rockwell actually paint models who were mother and daughter for this work?
