Joseph Francis Kernan, a magazine illustrator for forty years during the golden age of that art and saddled with the nickname "the poor man's Norman Rockwell" -- was born in 1878 in Brookline, Massachusetts. He paid for his studies in Boston at the Eric Pape School of Art, where he later taught for two years, by playing professional baseball.
True to his own sporting interests, Kernan favored outdoor scenes of sports, fishing, hunting and dogs. One of his paintings of an English Setter i (showing 500 of 1572 characters). |
