Edward Hopper:
Edward Hopper (1882–1967) was a major American painter and graphic artist whose realistic depictions of urban and rural life in the United States made him an important representative of 20th-century realism. His works, known for an atmosphere of loneliness and isolation, are deeply rooted in American culture and influenced many artists of his time and beyond.

Hopper's art shows clear influences from European painters such as Édouard Manet and Edgar Degas. From Manet he borrowed an interest in everyday scenes, and from Degas the use of unusual viewpoints and a focus on urban life. The influence of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec is also evident in Hopper's work, particularly in his portrayal of figures in interior spaces.

In the United States, Hopper was strongly influenced by the Ashcan School, a group of artists like Robert Henri and John Sloan who depicted everyday life of America’s urban population. This movement, which also included artists like George Bellows and Edward Weston, laid the groundwork for Hopper's later works, which often show people in anonymous, urban environments.

Hopper's representations of architecture and urban scenes have parallels with the work of Charles Sheeler, a founder of Precisionism, who emphasized clear, geometric depictions of buildings and industrial landscapes. There is also kinship with the works of Reginald Marsh, who likewise captured America’s urban landscape and everyday life, though with a stronger focus on the city’s dynamism and movement.

The emotional isolation and melancholy that permeate Hopper's works are also found in the works of Andrew Wyeth, another American Realist who often painted lonely rural scenes. Hopper's interest in light and shadow, particularly in his interior scenes, shows connections to the works of Vilhelm Hammershøi, a Danish painter known for his quiet, introspective interiors.

The visual language and narrative element in Hopper's art, which often hint at a story, also recall the works of Edward Gorey, an illustrator and author known for his melancholic and often eerie scenes. The cinematic quality of Hopper's paintings has inspired filmmakers like Alfred Hitchcock, especially in the use of light and composition to create a particular mood.

Later Hopper also influenced contemporary artists such as David Hockney and Gerhard Richter, who further developed aspects of realistic depiction and handling of light and space in their work. Hockney, especially in his California scenes, and Richter in his photo-realistic paintings, have absorbed elements of Hopper's analytical view of the world and recontextualized them.

Edward Hopper's works remain a central inspiration in art history, capturing the tension and unease of modern existence in a unique way. His ability to infuse everyday scenes with deep emotional and psychological layers makes him a timeless and relevant artist.
