"Pipe and Bowl," published by The Saturday Evening Post in February of 1926, is just one of Rockwell`s over 320 covers for the Post. It is during his time with the Post that Rockwell rose to prominence and solidified his reputation as one of the great illustrators of all time. "Pipe and Bowl" is a monumental piece in history because it is the first full color cover that was published by the Saturday Evening Post. In this piece, Rockwell teleports us back to Colonial times, showing us what it may have been like to be an artist for hire during the beginning of our glorious country.
