#41: Norman Fourking Rockwell

In 1941 FDR gave a speech detailing a vision for a brighter postwar future. This vision involved four essential freedoms that he felt encapsulated the needs of not only the U.S. but the entire world after what would be a historic and devastating war. Years later, Norman Rockwell perfectly visualized these freedoms in an attempt to raise support for the war effort.
