Today’s theme is voyeurism, as seen in this famous painting by Edward Hopper. He painted many types of scenes, but I love his portraits of lonely city dwellers, many of which have a voyeuristic feel, as if you’re spying on them from a neighboring apartment. Here’s a favorite, “Night Windows”, and a bit of a closeup.
@Harmonium1923 definitely. I welled with tears when I saw it in person. I'm not sure why. It's not a particularly profound or moving piece, but it is beautiful.
@Starcrossed I think he captures the feeling of introspection and loneliness among city dwellers who are part of a busy, crowded world. Sad and beautiful.
@Harmonium1923 It seems so real. And I'd totally go in for a meal. Like 100% looks like a place I'd want to slip into after a concert, play or show downtown.
