This is a companion painting to Day in the Life of a Little Boy, Rockwell's prior cover painting for the Post published three months earlier. It would seem that painting thirty-two heads is far more work than one or two, but to Rockwell whose forte was portraiture, telling a complete story using this method was far less work than a cover with a detailed background. The events of the girl's day were so typical to the American child that this cover could be appreciated by large numbers of viewers. In other countries, Rockwell's Post covers were popular because their images were easily interpreted as the essence of American culture. |

A young talent, Norman Rockwell received his first commission at age 17. By 1916, a 22-year-old Rockwell had painted his first cover for The Saturday Evening Post—the beginning of a 47-year and 321-cover relationship with the most prestigious magazine of the era.
Rockwell's success stemmed to a large degree from his careful appreciation for everyday American scenes, the warmth of small-town life in particular. Often what he depicted was treated with a certain simple charm and sense of humour. He created World War II posters and received the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1977.
