The Problem We All Live With - Matted Offset Print - 11x14
The Problem We All Live With was published prominently as a double-page centerfold in Look’s January 14th, 1964 issue – a year that marked the 10th anniversary of the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education Supreme Court ruling declaring racial segregation unconstitutional.
The symbolic work, proposed by Rockwell to Look art director Allen Hurlburt, seems to reflect upon the experiences and sacrifices of four Black children who become the first to attend all-white schools in New Orleans. In keeping with his interest in using local models, Rockwell invited the young Linda Gunn, the child of a friend and neighbor, to pose for his painting.
Today, the title remains one of Rockwell's most enduringly poignant images of American culture.
