Freedom of Speech (painting)
''Freedom of Speech'' is the first of the ''Four Freedoms'' paintings by Norman Rockwell that were inspired by United States President Franklin D. Roosevelt in the State of the Union Address, known as Four Freedoms, he delivered on January 6, 1941.
''Freedom of Speech'' was published in the February 20, 1943 Issue of ''The Saturday Evening Post'' with a matching essay by Booth Tarkington as part of the Four Freedoms series.〔 Rockwell felt that this and ''Freedom to Worship'' were the most successful of the set.〔Hennessey and Knutson, p. 102.〕 Since Rockwell liked to depict life as he experienced it or envisioned it, it is not surprising that this image depicts an actual occurrence.
==Background==
''Freedom of Speech'' was the first of a series of four oil paintings entitled, ''Four Freedoms'' painted by Norman Rockwell. The works were inspired by United States President, Franklin D. Roosevelt in a State of the Union Address, known as Four Freedoms, delivered to the 77th United States Congress on January 6, 1941.〔 Of the Four Freedoms, the only two described in the United States Constitution were freedom of speech and freedom of worship. The Four Freedoms' theme was eventually incorporated into the Atlantic Charter, and it became part of the charter of the United Nations.〔 The series of paintings ran in ''The Saturday Evening Post'' accompanied by essays from noted writers on four consecutive weeks: ''Freedom of Speech'' (February 20), ''Freedom of Worship'' (February 27), ''Freedom from Want'' (March 6) and ''Freedom from Fear'' (March 13). Eventually, the series became widely distributed in poster form and became instrumental in the U. S. Government War Bond Drive.
