About the Item

Edward Hopper - Early Sunday Morning Date of creation: 2022 Medium: Digital print on Canadian maple wood Edition: Open Size: 80 x 20 cm Condition: In mint conditions and never displayed Skate deck made of 7 ply grade A Canadian maple wood. © 2022 Heirs of Josephine N. Hopper/Licensed by Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York If there is a painting that captures the stillness and slow rhythm of American urban life, it is Early Sunday Morning by Edward Hopper. Painted in 1930, this oil on canvas transports us to a commercial street in New York during the first light of Sunday, just before the city awakens from its nocturnal slumber. The first thing that strikes the viewer is the silent atmosphere. The street is empty, shop windows are closed, and the aligned buildings unfold like an architectural staff, where each window and door marks a beat in Hopper’s visual melody. Although the city is the protagonist, the absence of people transforms the scene into a kind of poetic moment of contemplation, where the morning sunlight casts long, precise shadows that seem to whisper untold stories. Hopper’s treatment of light is masterful. He does not seek exaggerated drama; instead, his illumination is crystalline and measured, revealing textures and details with such economy that every line, color, and shadow tells a story. There is something delightfully cinematic in how the buildings, in their warm and cool tones, seem to await both the viewer and the Sunday pedestrians. But Hopper’s genius is not limited to light: the composition is an exercise in balance and patience. The almost minimalist empty street becomes a canvas where geometry and urban reality coexist. It reminds us that the city has its own rhythm, and sometimes the deepest stories are hidden in the quietest, most ordinary moments. Ultimately, Early Sunday Morning is not just an urban portrait; it is an ode to contemplation, luminous solitude, and the beauty of the everyday. It invites us to pause, to look closely, and to enjoy the poetry hidden in every city corner—even when everything seems asleep. ABOUT THE ARTIST Edward Hopper (1882–1967) is one of those artists capable of turning the everyday into a stage full of mystery. He was born in Nyack, a small town in New York State, into a well-off family that allowed him to pursue his greatest passion: drawing. From an early age, he showed a rare talent for capturing the atmosphere of spaces and the silent tension of the people who inhabit them. He trained at the New York School of Art, where he was influenced by masters such as Robert Henri, who encouraged him to observe modern reality with a critical and poetic eye. Hopper spent some time in Paris in the years leading up to World War I, absorbing the lessons of the Impressionists—but he was not dazzled by their bright brushstrokes. He preferred sobriety, silence, and dramatic light, as if he were already forging his signature style, somewhere between cinematic and literary. For years, he made a living more as a commercial illustrator than as a painter, and it wasn’t until his forties that his career truly took off. From then on, his paintings became windows into 20th-century American life: lonely gas stations, nighttime diners, empty theaters, lighthouses standing against the sea. His figures—women lost in thought in hotel rooms, men absorbed in anonymous bars—seem suspended in a moment, as if waiting for something that never happens. What is fascinating about Hopper is this paradox: he portrays solitude, yet does so with hypnotic beauty. His light—hard, clear, almost architectural—not only illuminates but also defines spaces and isolates figures. There is a cinematic air in his scenes, which explains why directors like Hitchcock, Antonioni, and Wim Wenders drew inspiration from him: each of his paintings could be the opening frame of a film. Despite his growing fame, Hopper was a reserved man, almost hermetic, who spent much of his life with his wife, the painter Josephine Nivison, in a Manhattan apartment and a summer house in Cape Cod. There, amid quiet routines and occasional travels, he created a body of work that, far from seeking spectacle, focused on what truly matters: how we inhabit spaces, what the light in a place tells us, and how much poetry can hide in the most mundane gestures. Today, Hopper is considered the great chronicler of modern solitude, the painter who turned the ordinary into an aesthetic enigma. His works continue to speak to us because we recognize ourselves in them: in that moment suspended between bustle and emptiness, presence and absence. And perhaps because in his paintings we find an elegant—and slightly cruel—mirror of our own routines.
