Marriage Counselor

Home Duty

Norman Rockwell painted this work in the early 1960s. As usual, he does not attempt to present a perfect world. The husband, sitting with his arms folded, shows he is standing his ground or perhaps being stubborn. The wife appears to be patiently waiting for him to come to his senses.
