Song Writing & Lyrics

Boy Next Door by Richard Marx

One of Richard Marx's song is called " Boy Next Door."

Part of its lyrics is as follows:

Born at the end of a Minnesota freeze
Eldest child of Willy and Louise
His little sister died at the age of four
The family posed, led by Louise
Like right out of some kind of Rockwell scene
But Jake couldn't fake it anymore

Could someone please tell me what "Rockwell scene" means?

Thanks so much!

Please excuse me for my poor English, Clive.

I still couldn't know what "Rockwell scene" means.


Would you please explain a little bit more?



Thanks in advance.
