...commentary from Muriel C. Marshall, Secretary Plate Selection Committee Rockwell Society of America "It is a chilly winter night in 1920. The wind whips around the modest frame house. Upstairs, just one window is lighted, and beyond that window a scene takes place that is the universal statement of a mother's love. A young mother, weary from her long day cannot rest until she knows that her children are safe and warm for the night...." "A Mother's Love" is a classic from Rockwell's "Victorian" period in the early 1920's.
