Hopper

Illustrated in sumptuous color for the first time: Mark Strand’s acclaimed examination of the art of the great American painter Edward Hopper.

In thirty brief, elegantly expressive, illuminating essays—each one accompanying a single painting—Strand “takes the poet’s entrance into the silent world of Hopper with a gift of words that allows a painter and a poet to become partners in opening the windows of the imagination” (Wayne Thiebaud).
