Having saved Norman Rockwell’s original studio and moving it to the new location the added $5 tour was completely worth it. The museum has a complete set of covers he painted for the magazine. In addition to rotating exhibits, it has a vast collection of original paintings to marvel at the details of Rockwell’s paintings.

A beautiful sunny summer day relaxing enjoying the beautiful artwork of our own American artist, Norman Rockwell. Along with featured artists, the afternoon was fascinating and educational. Lunch on the terrace was perfect! Nestled in the Berkshires, you listen to the songs of birds and the occasional lone whistle of a passing train. I took home a cute souvenir from their well-stocked gift shop. Enjoy!

A wonderful place to see the work and learn about the life of an American treasure. His last studio has been moved to the museum site and the knowledgeable staff does an excellent job describing the space and the artist. The grounds are very well kept and great to explore.

A nice museum, with some good informative videos on bits of Norman's. A nice walk around the grounds brings you to the river and his studio. I would recommend if you're in the area and need something to do for an hour or two

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Questions & Answers

Christine Burt, Thanks for responding to my question about the Photos that Norman Rockwell's photographers took of the models. Who would have the answer to that question? Former models and their families would enjoy seeing them.

Alfred Lofgren | Jan 24, 2019
Louis Rainer | Jan 25, 2019

You would have to call the museum setup a appointment to meet with the curator. He or she would probably be the best person to answer your question. It's a beautiful museum and I'm sure you would enjoy it as we did

Tracey Jones | Jan 24, 2020

Purchase . . Personally, I doubt it. It's on the property that Norman Rockwell owned, and it displays his original work. If it is an original Rockwell, then possibly.

Hi, I modeled for Mr. Rockwell at the Schiff Scout reservation in 1966.(pub. 1969) I believe that his photographers took many pictures of the scouts that modeled for the painting"Behind the Easel" Do you display or sell the photos used for paintings?

Alfred Lofgren | Jan 24, 2019
Christine Burt | Jan 25, 2019

Hello! I had the pleasure of visiting the museum back in January, and I know they did display at least one of the paintings with the scouts. Also a few times a year they have the models Rockwell used come as guest speakers to the museum and speak about their experience. I thought that was such a great idea to incorporate into their guided tour. It was very informative and enjoyable. Maybe you would be interested in doing that?! Add a little more to the history 🙂 I know I didn't completely answer your question but thought you may be interested in doing something like that 🙂

There is always someone there that can look at any article or painting. But depending on what you want to learn from your visit, the right person may or may not be there.

I bought what appears to be an original study of his painting of President Eisenhower. I know the finished painting is in a museum. But how do I find out if the study painting is an original?

I would call the museum and make a appointment to show the painting to a consultant
