One of the defining American artists of the 20th century, Edward Hopper has left a legacy of work that is once familiar and elusive in the American consciousness. This monograph examines Hopper's world on canvas by placing his work within the context of the changes brought about by America's history and technology. From silent urban scenes to countryside vistas, particular attention is paid to the introduction of the automobile into American life, as well as such modern surroundings as fluorescent lighting, diners, and rail travel, all of which lent unique subject matter to Hopper's paintings. The text provides a comprehensive look at author's life and work accompanied by 102 illustrations, including 55 full-color plates of his most notable paintings. Includes a bibliography and chronology. Color and black and white plates. 9" x 12".
