In 2022, war is again at the forefront of international consciousness, to degrees not seen for two decades. The response of the Administration of US President George W.

Dwight Eisenhower's presidency (1952-1960) was a conservative, traditional period so it was natural that his most iconic portrait was captured by Norman Rockwell-- an artist whose work embodied the traditional American values of the first half of the 20th century.
There is no better known painting of Eisenhower than this image from the cover of the Saturday Evening Post.
