Edward Hopper

One of America's foremost figurative painters, Hopper imbued 20th-century life with a unique vision that continues to challenge & stimulate debate. His mature work covers a range of subjects: from the rugged landscapes of Cape Cod to the impersonal architecture of New York; and from his "Hopper houses" to his celebrated portraits. And behind his luminous representations of American life lies a painful acknowledgment of the chilling isolation & essential boredom of modern life. An intriguing study of a remarkable artist, filled with a representative selection of color plates. 9" x 13".
