I was surprised to learn about his shift in motif because I was only familiar with his warm sentimentalist work until about a year ago. This was the piece that introduced me to the Rockwell I didn't know. "Murder In Mississippi", also for Look.
![Murder in Mississippi, as named by the artist, is a 1965 painting by Norman Rockwell which was commissioned for an article titled "Southern Justice" in the American magazine Look. The painting depicts the 1964 murders of civil rights activists James Chaney, Andrew Goodman and Michael Schwerner, and was intended to illustrate an article written on the murders, by civil rights attorney Charles Morgan Jr.[1] The painting is oil on canvas 53 × 42 inches (134.5 × 106.5 cm), and also has a pencil on board study of the same title,[2] both of which reside in the collections of the Norman Rockwell Museum.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:bti6zch3oio6xfb7u7oqchck/bafkreihvy5jqmfqa2vmza2svefh6qffsiwljpndb355hnrohyciivytl2u@jpeg)

I've sketched out 47 rough draft pages for The Town-Ho's Story, my standalone adaptation of chapter 54 of Moby-Dick. That's almost exactly 1/3 of the final page count of 149. Also those B&W pages are full color in the final.

Rejiggered everything to fit the two lines that will introduce the next two pages, a mini documentary on the nature and production of chicha.
I continue to be amused by the dons' interruptions and that Ishmael preserves them in his years-later retelling of events.
