Dive into the playful intrigue of Norman Rockwell’s "Stereopticon or Sphinx"—a January 14, 1922 Saturday Evening Post cover that blends humor, mystery, and the artist’s signature wit. This cleverly composed scene features a young boy, utterly engrossed in a stereopticon (an early 3D photo viewer), while his mischievous little sister holds up a toy sphinx mask behind him—creating the illusion of an ancient Egyptian statue looming over his shoulder.
Rockwell’s genius for storytelling shines in the boy’s oblivious fascination and the girl’s sly grin, capturing childhood curiosity and sibling antics in one delightful moment. The title’s playful question—"Stereopticon or Sphinx?"—invites viewers to join the joke, making this piece as engaging today as it was a century ago.
A testament to Rockwell’s ability to turn everyday mischief into timeless art, this cover is perfect for fans of Americana, vintage charm, or anyone who appreciates art that tells a story.
