Description from the seller
Edward Hopper: “Hotel Room, 1931”.
Condition: the work is in excellent state.
Dimensions: 40 x 30 cm.
Edward Hopper was an American painter who is generally regarded as one of the foremost realist artists of the 20th century. His work captures the quiet poetry of modern life in the United States, with scenes of isolation, stillness, and introspection that reveal the emotional undercurrents of daily existence.
Born in Nyack, New York, Hopper studied illustration and fine art in New York City and later in Paris, where he absorbed the influence of impressionism but developed a much stricter and more psychologically oriented approach. In the twenties he had established his mature style: geometric clarity, sharp contrasts of light and shadow, and a restrained palette that conveyed a unique American atmosphere of loneliness and contemplation.
Hopper’s paintings often depict urban interiors, gas stations, hotel rooms, diners, and street corners—places where time seems to stand still. His figures, usually isolated and introspective, evoke a sense of emotional distance, even within familiar environments.
Through this quiet tension Hopper created a powerful visual language that reflects both the loneliness and the dignity of modern existence.
Hopper’s careful handling of light, whether natural or artificial, serves not merely as illumination but as a narrative force that reveals inner states and emotional ambiguity. His art bridges realism and symbolism and offers subtle social commentaries on urban alienation in the early 20th century.
In the art market, Edward Hopper’s works are among the most sought after of all American painters.
His major oil paintings are housed in prestigious institutions such as the Whitney Museum, MoMA, and the Art Institute of Chicago, and they rarely come up for sale. When they do, they command exceptional prices: his 1934 painting Chop Suey sold in 2018 for $91.9 million, setting a record for the artist. Works from the same period and with similar subject matter as Hotel Room are valued in the multi‑million‑dollar range, reflecting both their rarity and Hopper’s lasting cultural impact.
Today Hopper’s influence extends far beyond painting, inspiring filmmakers, photographers, and contemporary artists.
