“Flutist, Spring Song”

‘Flutist, Spring Song”. Norman Rockwell, 1925.

I love this image — relaxed (even a little too much so, considering the left elbow leaning on the desk) and obviously just playing for his own enjoyment. This is definitely not someone working on an upcoming audition or recital program!

Leave it to the great Norman Rockwell to totally capture the mood of the moment.
