Edward Hopper-Windy Day

Edward Hopper is known to be one of the most important realist painters of twentieth century America. He chose to paint mostly empty cityscapes, landscapes and isolated figures. Hopper's most famous piece is called Nighthawks and is owned by the Chicago institute of Art. Some of Hoppers earliest watercolors are inspired by Cape Elizabeth in Maine. He took various trips there between the years 1923 and 1927, during that time he created this titled Windy Day.
