(*) The American painter Edward Hopper was one of the leading representatives of 20th-century realism. Although for much of his life his pictorial work did not receive much critical or public attention and he was forced to work as an illustrator to subsist, today his works have become icons of modern life and society.
He studied at the New York School of Art with William Merritt Chase and Robert Henri. He undertook several trips to Europe, and from early on he was interested in European culture and art, especially the works of Edgar Degas and Édouard Manet. From 1910 he resided permanently in New York, in his Washington Square house, which he only left during his summer stays in New England, from 1930 always in Cape Cod, where he built a house. In 1924 he married Jo Nivison, who not only posed for him on numerous occasions, but also prepared throughout his life a detailed record of his work. His artistic production is relatively small, since he was a painter of slow, measured execution. At first he was associated with the so-called American Scene, a heterogeneous group of artists who shared a common interest in themes of America, but Hopper soon developed his own pictorial style. His taciturn character and austere forms had a strong influence on his work, which as a whole is characterized by the simplified representation of reality and the perfect capture of the loneliness of the modern man. Through his painting we approach the America of the Great Depression, which for him symbolized the crisis of modern life.
The cinematic treatment of scenes and his personal use of light are the main differentiating elements of his painting. Although he painted some landscapes and outdoor scenes, most of his pictorial subjects depict public places such as bars, motels, hotels, stations, trains, all of them almost empty to emphasize the loneliness of the depicted figure. Moreover, Hopper intensifies the dramatic effect through strong contrasts of light and shadow.
Around 1930, as a result of isolationism, his fame increased considerably, although critical success began to grow truly after his death, in 1967, when he began to be recognized as one of the great masters of 20th-century art and not only as an example of American realism.
