Book Description

Publication Date: November 4, 2004

Edward Hopper (1882-1967) is generally considered the major twentieth-century realist.

Such paintings as House by the Railroad, Early Sunday Morning, and Nighthawks seem to embody the loneliness of the individual in the cities and open spaces of America. Hopper strongly influenced contemporary American art, and there are countless photographs and films inspired by his work. The forty paintings in this volume give a representative overview of Hopper's art.

5.0 out of 5 stars Small book, but potent, October 29, 2006

brainiacbooks (Staten Island, NY United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Edward Hopper: Forty Masterworks (Schirmer's Visual Library) (Paperback)

When you need a bracing shot of Edward Hopper's realism but don't want to drag your treasured 'coffee-table' books down from the good bookcase, just reach for this handy little paperback. Among the 40 color plates -- approximately postcard size and of good quality -- you will probably find the favorite painting you were looking for. The essay by Heinz Liesbrock, "The Silent Truth of Light: Edward Hopper's Oeuvre", gives a quick written overview. A good value, and an artist whose significance seems to be ever-increasing.

I think that E. Hopper is one of the most imporant painters of 20th century. I was fanscinated at the works embodying human's solitude.
