The Scoutmaster
''The Scoutmaster'' is a 1956 painting by Norman Rockwell. It was originally created by Rockwell for the 1956 Brown & Bigelow Boy Scout Calendar. Since then, it has become one of most collected images that Rockwell created for the Boy Scouts of America.
==Creation==
Rockwell set out to create a painting dedicated to the Scoutmasters of the United States.〔 In 1953, he visited the 4th National Scout jamboree at Irvine Ranch. Rockwell, who used photographs as a source for his paintings, was staging a photo-shoot at the jamboree. He approached a Scoutmaster from Oakland and asked him for four boys to pose for a photo. One of the four chosen was Howard Lincoln who would become the chairman of Nintendo of America and later the CEO of the Seattle Mariners. The four Scouts set up tents and built a fire in the middle of a day. Rockwell found a professional Scouter at the jamboree headquarters to pose as the scoutmaster for the all-day photo shoot.
Later that year, Lincoln and the other three scouts each received a $25 check and a letter from Rockwell asking them to sign a release.〔 Over the course of the next three years, Rockwell turned the daytime pictures into a nighttime painting. At the request of James E. West, the tents in the painting were modified to be civilian tents with guylines and sidewalls instead of military-style pup tents. It debuted as the 1956 Boy Scout Calendar published by Brown & Bigelow.〔
