Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most important American painters of the twentieth century, Edward Hopper spent nearly every summer of his prolific career in New England. Coastal views, mansard-roofed houses and a still light inspired many of his greatest works. This collection presents some of Hopper's finest paintings of New England, providing a guide to the places that resonated so deeply with the artist throughout his career. Carl Little's essay examines the crucial role New England played in Hopper's development and considers the full range of his work set in the Northeast: early etchings and radiant watercolours; architectural paintings of Victorian mansions, factories, barns, and summer cottages; and the magnificent sailing pictures through which Hopper expressed his lifelong love of the sea. Also included are late-career psychological paintings-composites of the landscape with figures - which convey the loneliness and isolation for which Hopper's work is best known. Works in this book are from the collections of over twenty-five museums, including the Art Institute of Chicago, the Brooklyn Museum, the Corcoran Gallery of Art, the Dallas Museum of Art, Boston's Museum of Fine Arts, the National Gallery of Art, and the Whitney Museum of American Art.
