"Art Critic" is a notable painting by the American artist Norman Rockwell, created in 1955. This work showcases Rockwell's quintessential style and his keen observation of American life, humor, and society. The painting depicts a humorous scene where a young male art critic, scrutinizing a painting with a magnifying glass, is unaware that the subject of the portrait he is examining appears to be glaring back at him disapprovingly. This interaction cleverly blurs the lines between the observer and the observed, offering a playful commentary on the act of artistic criticism itself.

Rockwell, renowned for his detailed and expressive illustrations that graced the covers of "The Saturday Evening Post" for nearly half a century, often infused his works with narrative depth, wit, and a touch of satire. "Art Critic" is no exception, as it reflects his adeptness at capturing the nuances of human expressions and interactions, making his subjects come alive on canvas. This painting, like many of Rockwell's works, tells a story that is both specific in its character portrayal and universal in its exploration of human nature and societal roles.

The painting was initially published in "The Saturday Evening Post," contributing to Rockwell's reputation as a painter who could convey complex ideas with charm, accessibility, and visual appeal. "Art Critic" remains a significant piece in Rockwell's oeuvre, exemplifying his skill in using art to explore and critique social conventions and the roles individuals play within them. It continues to be celebrated for its technical prowess, its engaging narrative, and its insightful, albeit light-hearted, take on the relationship between art and its audience.
