About this listen

 Edward Hopper was an American realist painter born in 1882 in Nyack, New York. He is best known for his evocative depictions of modern American life, often capturing moments of stillness, isolation, and quiet introspection. His paintings typically feature urban and rural scenes with strong contrasts of light and shadow, emphasizing mood over detail. One of his most famous works, Nighthawks, portrays people in a late-night diner, reflecting themes of loneliness and urban anonymity. Hopper's style is characterized by clear lines, simple forms, and a subdued color palette. Through his art, he conveyed a deep sense of atmosphere and emotion, making him one of the most significant American artists of the 20th century.
