The alternate title for this painting is Circus Performer Bandaging Dog's Paw. The painting was named by the editors of The Literary Digest. This illustration was Rockwell's forty-first picture featured on the cover of The Literary Digest. Rockwell artwork was featured on the cover of The Digest nine times just in 1922. While the Audience WaitsIn this painting, Rockwell takes us backstage at the circus. The circus performer is bandaging the paw of his circus dog. Was the dog injured doing his part in the circus act? Or was his paw already injured before and the man is getting him ready to perform again? 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. The two characters are obviously performing in the same act. The poodle's costume matches his human performer's clothing. The jackets are clearly the same. The look on the human performer's face shows concern for his fellow performer. He wants to make sure the little dog can perform in the next act.
The dog, certainly cute enough with his pointy hat, steals the show in this painting and probably in their act as well...
