“Happy Birthday, Miss Jones” by Norman Rockwell on the cover of “The Saturday Evening Post,” March 17, 1956.

“Rockwell intended this painting to be a tribute to his own eighth-grade teacher who had encouraged him to draw. Gathering a local model and students, Rockwell used a real grammar school classroom in Stockbridge as his reference.” – Norman Rockwell Museum

 

Love the kid sitting up straight and balancing books on his head :-)
