Rockwell Kent (1882-1971) was an American painter and illustrator who bridged the artistic gap between Victorian and Modern art; the illustrator of countless books, his appeal has continued to grow throughout the 20th century and he remains highly collectable today.

In 1967 Smallwood wrote a letter to Rockwell Kent, inviting him to visit Newfoundland - at the expense of the government. Smallwood had been an admirer of Kent's work, and wanted to made amends to Kent for being ordered to leave Newfoundland in 1915, after several altercations with the local citizens.the story of which is quite colourful (see the web site of "saltwire" entitled "Rockwell Kent - The Brigus Spy", posted September 29, 2017).
