With an informed and informative text by New York resident, writer and art historian Avis Berman, Edward Hopper's New York showcases more than 50 color and b/w paintings, etchings and drawings focusing exclusively on famed artist's Edward Hopper's New York City inspired artwork. Many of the artworks have a paragraph of commentary exclusive to them, but the overall narrative tour continues from cover to cover. Realistic in its artistic style, with a slightly softer than life texture to the paintings that is just about the only thing that prevents one from mistaking them for photographs, Edward Hopper's New York is a unique tour of the city itself.

Edward Hooper is one of the great visual artists of all time. his best work comes from his time in Manhattan. Hopper captures New York as a city of moods and quiet, rather than focus on the glamour of the city. while this is a New York of nearly a century ago, many of the scenes are recognizable and yet a view of a quiet past of the Big Apple.

I'm not reviewing the content so am I reviewing the quality of the paper, the binding, the pictures. Nonsense even asking for a review.
