About the Item

EDWARD HOPPER - CITY ROOFS Date of creation: 2022 Medium: Digital print on Canadian maple wood Edition: Open Size: 80 x 20 cm (each skate) Condition: In mint conditions and never displayed This triptych is formed by three skate decks made of 7 ply grade A Canadian maple wood. © 2022 Heirs of Josephine N. Hopper/Licensed by Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York Edward Hopper is renowned for capturing urban solitude and the light of New York, and his painting City Roofs (1932) is a prime example. This oil on canvas offers a unique view of the city from a rooftop, depicting buildings, chimneys, and antennas in a composition that balances geometry and reality. In City Roofs, Hopper demonstrates his ability to convey quietness and isolation even amidst urban density. The work includes no human figures; instead, the city itself takes center stage, illuminated with Hopper’s characteristic dramatic light. The contrast between bright surfaces and deep shadows creates depth and volume, while the interplay of warm and cool tones generates a serene and contemplative atmosphere. The elevated perspective allows the viewer to observe the city from a point between intimacy and introspection, highlighting urban solitude and the beauty of the everyday. Hopper also plays with the abstraction of rooftops and structures, turning common elements into almost geometric forms—a feature that links his work to modern painting without losing connection to reality. In short, Edward Hopper’s City Roofs is a visual study of light, form, and silence, showing how the city can feel both familiar and alienating. This work captures the essence of modern solitude, offering a space for contemplation amid the urban bustle and cementing Hopper’s reputation as one of the great chroniclers of city life. 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.
