His art was based on the ordinary aspects of the contemporary United States, in city, town, and country, seen with uncompromising truthfulness. No artist has painted a more revealing portrait of twentieth-century America. But he was not merely an objective realist. His art was charged with strong personal emotion, with a deep attachment to our familiar everyday world, in all its ugliness, banality, and beauty." With these words the late Lloyd Goodrich, formerly Director of the Whitney Museum of American Art, begins his warm, sparkling account of Edward Hopper's life and work. In this first major publication on the artist, he traces Hopper's career from his artistic beginnings as one of the group of young painters surrounding Robert Henri, through his European journeys, gives special attention to the superb etchings and watercolors, and then details the period of full critical recognition and success which, beginning in the early 1920s, made Hopper one of the best known and best loved of all American artists.
