- Edward Hopper (after), offset lithograph on textured matte paper (approx. 300gsm - refers to paper thickness/density). - Signed in the plate. - Stamp on verso. - Condition: excellent. Never framed, never exposed. - Size: 42,5 x 61cm. - A defining example of Edward Hopper’s poetic American Realism, Light at Two Lights (1927) captures the silent monumentality of the Maine coastline through the artist’s unmistakable architecture of light and form. The lighthouse rises as a sculptural vertical against the vast sky, while the keeper’s house and wind-swept grass are reduced to essential geometric volumes, revealing Hopper’s refined balance between observation and abstraction. As in House by the Railroad and Gas, light is not merely descriptive but structural, shaping space and mood and transforming a specific location Cape Elizabeth into a timeless and contemplative image. Created during the crucial decade that established Hopper as one of the most important figures of 20th-century American art, this composition reflects his dialogue with Precisionism and with the broader modernist language that also defined artists such as Charles Sheeler and Georgia O’Keeffe. The high horizon, the clarity of the forms, and the absence of anecdotal detail anticipate the cinematic stillness that would later culminate in Nighthawks, placing this work at the intersection of landscape, architecture, and psychological space. Today, Hopper’s imagery is synonymous with refined interior design and curated contemporary spaces, perfectly suited to environments ranging from mid-century modern and minimalist settings to classic Hamptons and sophisticated urban apartments. Within the international art market, his work is increasingly presented alongside blue-chip and highly searched names such as Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Marc Chagall, Salvador Dalí, Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Banksy, Tamara de Lempicka and Wassily Kandinsky, reinforcing its strong cross-collecting appeal for buyers of modern and contemporary prints, grade decorative art, and iconic 20th-century imagery. Light at Two Lights ultimately embodies Hopper’s unique ability to turn a real landscape into a scene of pure atmosphere and introspection through the controlled use of light, volume, and silence an enduring image that continues to resonate with collectors and interior designers worldwide.
