Hotel by a Railroad - Posters

Edward Hopper is widely acknowledged as the most important realist painter of twentieth-century America. Hopper derived his subject matter from two primary sources: one, the common features of American life (gas stations, motels, restaurants, theatres, railroads, and street scenes) and its inhabitants; and two, seascapes and rural landscapes.
No one captured the isolation of the individual within the modern city like Edward Hopper. His imagery of figures within urban settings go well beyond their role as modern cityscapes, exposing the underbelly of the human experience. His work demonstrates that realism is not merely a literal or photographic copying of what we see, but an interpretive rendering.

About Hotel by a Railroad
“Hotel by a Railroad” is one of the last major artworks by Edward Hopper. This painting pays close attention to the effects of light on a pair relaxing in a hotel, self-absorbed and oblivious to each other's presence with the gloomy vibe in the room that imparts a melancholy mood. This remarkable oil painting with exceptional use of colour, detail and brush strokes, powerfully expresses Hopper's interest in the alienation of modern life.About the Posters
