Edward Hopper (i) - Oil On Canvas (i) - 1952 - (Columbus Museum of Art (United States)) (i), Edward Hopper (i) - Oil On Canvas (i) - 1952 - (Columbus Museum of Art (United States)) (i) Edward Hopper was an American Scene painter, a painter who captured ordinary life in the United States throughout the 1930s, 1940s, and beyond. Edward Hoppers artwork Morning Sun from 1952 depicts his wife Jo, who served as the model for several of his female works. Figures in Hopper's paintings are frequently portrayed alone and lost in thought, like in this example. A woman is depicted in a tiny pink slip with her arms exposed. She's sitting up in bed, her knees drawn up to her chest, staring out the window of her bedroom at a metropolitan sky. The stark walls behind her produced dramatic shadows. The picture, which has been in the Columbus Museum of Art's collection since 1954, when it was purchased for $3,500, represents Hopper at his best. It uses the type of sparse, evocative language that has been popular in recent years to hint at the essential bones of a storey. Alfred Hitchcock, David Lynch, Wim Wenders, and Gregory Crewdson were among the filmmakers and photographers who were influenced by him.
