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

Hopper's art shows clear influences from European painters such as Édouard Manet and Edgar Degas. He adopted from Manet the interest in everyday scenes and from Degas the use of unusual perspectives and the focus on urban life. The influence of Henri Toulouse-Lautrec is also evident in Hopper's work, particularly in his depiction of figures indoors.

In the USA, Hopper was heavily influenced by the Ashcan School, a group of artists such as Robert Henri and John Sloan who depicted the everyday life of the American urban population. This movement, which also included artists like George Bellows and Edward Weston, laid the foundation for Hopper's later works, which often depict people in anonymous, urban environments.

Hopper's depictions of architecture and urban scenes have parallels to the works of Charles Sheeler, a co-founder of Precisionism, who emphasized the clear, geometric representation of buildings and industrial landscapes. Similarly, there is a kinship with the works of Reginald Marsh, who also captured America's urban landscape and everyday life, albeit with a stronger focus on the city's dynamism and movement.

The emotional isolation and melancholy that permeate Hopper's works can also be found in the works of Andrew Wyeth, another American realist who often painted lonely, rural scenes. Hopper's interest in light and shadow, especially in his depiction of interior spaces, 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 suggest a story, also recall the works of Edward Gorey, an illustrator and author known for his melancholic and often eerie scenes. The cinematographic quality of Hopper's paintings has also inspired filmmakers like Alfred Hitchcock, particularly in the use of light and composition to create a specific mood.

Later, Hopper also influenced contemporary artists such as David Hockney and Gerhard Richter, both of whom further developed aspects of realistic depiction and the handling of light and space in their work. Hockney, especially in his portrayals of California, and Richter in his photorealistic paintings, incorporated elements of Hopper's analytical view of the world and placed them within new contextual frameworks.

Edward Hopper's works remain a central inspiration in art history because they uniquely capture the tension and discomfort of modern existence. His ability to imbue everyday scenes with deep emotional and psychological layers makes him a timeless and relevant artist.
