About Pants

The artwork, titled “Pants,” was created by Norman Rockwell in 1919. It is associated with the art movement known as Regionalism and is categorized as a genre painting.

In the artwork, a young boy appears to be in a humorous, yet frantic situation as he chases after a dog that has grasped his trousers. The boy is depicted in a dynamic pose, with one leg mid-air and a desperate look on his face. He wears a gray shirt and red-and-white striped shorts, with a straw hat flying off his head, suggesting sudden movement. The dog, seemingly playful, has a firm grip on one leg of the boy’s pants, adding to the sense of commotion. The overall setting is minimalist, with the action and expressions of the characters prominently conveying a narrative of a mischievous and lively moment.
