Edward Hopper was born in 1882 to a middle-class New York family. He was a proponent of the realist art style and arguably the most influential figure in American Realism, which aimed to depict life as it really was in the 20th century.
Edward Hopper depicted both urban and rural scenes in his art. When you browse Edward Hopper's canvas prints, you’ll find subject matters ranging from storefronts on a Sunday morning, to rural New England towns.
Some of Edward Hopper’s most well-known artwork includes Nighthawks, Early Sunday Morning and House By The Railroad.
Edward Hopper’s art broke away from the Modernism styles popular with many artists such as Henri Matisse and Vincent Van Gogh at the time. Hopper aimed to depict ordinary life with his artwork. Hopper’s ‘Gas’, for instance, uses a humble gas station as its subject matter.
And yet, Edward Hopper’s art contains intriguing depictions of loneliness. Hopper’s most iconic work, ‘Nighthawks’, shows three people with vacant expressions sitting silently in a dark cafe. One of Hopper’s most commonly bought pieces of wall art, it shows a masterful use of light and shade to depict urban isolation.
A framed Edward Hopper print is a fantastic choice if you’re trying to create an introspective atmosphere in your space. Hopper prints like ‘Automat’ and ‘Chop Suey’ bring depth to any room, capable of making a large statement with deceptively ‘simple’ subjects.
If you’re shopping for best-selling art prints for a home study or workspace, choose Edward Hopper, to foster a calm atmosphere that equally invites reflection and thoughtfulness.
Many also choose to hang Edward Hopper prints in their rooms because of their historical significance, given his prominence in the American Realism movement.
