Edward Hopper was a noted American artist, well known for his oil paintings of contemporary American life. Looking at his realistic paintings I can’t help but feel as if I traveled back in time. His scenes of rural and urban life are iconic as he managed to beautifully capture slice-of-life moments, of an America of a time gone by. |
