四个二战时代的罗克威尔草图 曾经出现在白宫 在达拉斯被拍卖 Four WWII-era Rockwell sketches, once in the White House, are auctioned in Dallas with a $2.5M bid, as a nonprofit seeks to preserve them.

诺曼·洛克威尔 （Norman Rockwell） 的四幅素描描绘了等待与富兰克林·罗斯福总统会面的不同美国人，这些素描曾在白宫西翼展出，即将在达拉斯拍卖，起拍价为 250 万美元。 Four Norman Rockwell sketches depicting diverse Americans waiting to meet President Franklin D. Roosevelt, once displayed in the White House West Wing, are set for auction in Dallas with a $2.5 million opening bid. 这些图纸建于1943年,最初是赠给罗斯福新闻秘书Stephen Allen的,在联邦上诉法院解决了所有权问题的法律争议之后,于2022年归还给家人。 Created in 1943, the drawings were originally gifted to Roosevelt’s press secretary, Stephen Early, and returned to his family in 2022 after a legal dispute over ownership, resolved by a federal appeals court. 旨在保护美国遗产的白宫历史协会正试图收回这些残块,称它们为二战期间民主的独特叙事系列。 The White House Historical Association, which aims to preserve American heritage, is seeking to reclaim the pieces, calling them a unique narrative series symbolizing democracy during World War II. 遗产拍卖估计,这些工程可以销售400万至600万美元,这对依赖私人捐款的非营利组织构成财政挑战。 Heritage Auctions estimates the works could sell for $4 million to $6 million, presenting a financial challenge for the nonprofit, which relies on private donations.
