A Pilgrim`s Progress 1921

"A Pilgrim's Progress" (1921) by Norman Rockwell depicts a young boy, dressed in Pilgrim attire, sprinting through the woods with a musket in hand. Multiple arrows are embedded in the boy's clothing and behind him, a turkey carries even more arrows. Rockwell's iconic painting is a depiction of the challenges of life and the resilience needed to persevere, a theme he frequently explored in his art. The work, created in the early 20th century, captures the spirit of American optimism and determination. This work is a quintessential example of Rockwell's narrative style and ability to capture the human experience through relatable and humorous imagery.
