description: A penetrating exploration of the American realist painter, who was able to capture the many moods of the nation he called home. Edward Hopper’s talent for depicting multiple aspects of the post-war experience is the focus of this flexi-cover edition of Edward Portraits of America. From his images of deserted small towns and solitary figures in empty offices to his cheerfully tranquil New England landscapes, Hopper’s most famous compositions are presented as products of a life spent observing human nature. Hopper’s images evoke an enigmatic uncertainty, which speaks to the heart of the American experience.
