Edward Hopper (American, 18821967) spent nearly every summer of his prolific career in New England. However, he was not a New Englander by birth; born and raised in Nyack, New York, he studied painting at the New York School of Art and wintered in Greenwich Village. The outcome of this dual residency is a body of work rich in rural landscapes and seascapes, as well as studies of city life. In this collection, the light that so fascinated the artist bathes New England land and sea, and enters into indoor spaces with geometric intensity.
