Boy Reading Adventure Story The Saturday Evening Post, November 10, 1923 by Norman Rockwell Collection of George Lucas |
Boy Reading Adventure Story is about the power of the written word to transport a child to a distant land and time. George Lucas commented, "It's a painting celebrating literature, the magic that happens when you read a story, and the story comes alive for you." When working on STAR WARS, he said, "I realized that you could still sit and dream about exotic lands and strange creatures."
