- Edward Hopper (after), offset lithograph on heavy-weight textured matte paper (300gsm approx.). - Stamp on verso. - Condition: excellent. Never framed, never exposed. - Size: 37 x 56cm. - Edward Hopper (1882–1967) is one of the most influential American realist painters of the 20th century. Known for his quiet yet psychologically charged scenes, Hopper captured the emotional undercurrents of modern American life: solitude, expectation, stillness, and the subtle tension between individuals and their environments. His work is instantly recognizable for its cinematic lighting, architectural clarity, strong geometry, and the introspective figures that populate his urban and rural landscapes. Throughout his career, Hopper explored themes such as alienation, urban anonymity, and the poetics of everyday spaces. Paintings like Nighthawks (1942) and Chop Suey (1929) have become cultural icons, representing his unparalleled ability to transform ordinary scenes into reflections on human experience. His masterful use of light often crisp, directional, and theatrical remains one of his most defining artistic traits. Hopper’s works are among the most sought-after in American art. His few paintings that appear at auction regularly achieve tens of millions of dollars, with Chop Suey selling for over $90 million in 2018 a record for the artist. Works from the 1930s and 1940s, especially oil paintings featuring single figures in contemplative settings, are highly prized due to their rarity and cultural significance. Summertime depicts a young woman standing on the steps of a building, bathed in bright sunlight, just as in the image you provided. The scene shows Hopper’s signature interplay of light and shadow, contrasting the sunlit exterior with the dark interior behind her. The woman’s white dress and relaxed pose evoke warmth, openness, and a fleeting sense of freedom, while the surrounding architecture rigid, monumental, and slightly austere adds a note of psychological tension. This composition captures one of Hopper’s most characteristic themes: the ambiguity between presence and introspection. Although the woman stands in the sunlight, the space feels strangely quiet and isolated, inviting viewers to imagine her inner thoughts. Summertime is celebrated for its haunting stillness and emotional subtlety, hallmarks of Hopper at his finest.
