Versions of it have appeared on posters, T-shirts and greeting cards as well as in comic books and advertisements. [51] Typically, these parodies—like Helnwein's Boulevard of Broken Dreams, which became a popular poster [18]—retain the diner and highly recognizable diagonal composition, but replace the patrons and attendant with other characters: animals, Santa Claus and his reindeer, or the respective casts of The Adventures of Tintin or Peanuts. [52] His art teachers included William Merritt Chase, who also inspired Hopper’s earlier art style. Hopper was also inspired by the styles of Édouard Manet and Edgar Degas, all figures from the French Impressionism art movement.

It has been suggested that Hopper was inspired by a short story of Ernest Hemingway's, either " The Killers" (1927), which Hopper greatly admired, [4] or from the more philosophical " A Clean, Well-Lighted Place" (1933). [5] In response to a query on loneliness and emptiness in the painting, Hopper outlined that he "didn't see it as particularly lonely". He said "unconsciously, probably, I was painting the loneliness of a large city". [6] Josephine Hopper's notes on the painting [ edit ] Next, we will look at a formal analysis and Hopper’s artistic style in this painting, for example, the way he utilized color to depict light and dark, his use of line, and of course, the subject matter – just what are we looking at when we see four people sitting in a diner in New York City? Below we look at all these and more. Artist Nighthawks’ by Edward Hopper is often recognised as one of the most famous artworks of 20th century America. The painting depicts a midnight scene of ‘Phillies’ diner, inside which 4 anonymous figures can be seen; 2 men, 1 woman and a bartender. ‘Nighthawks’ is often read as an exploration of human existentialism and loneliness in the modern age. The figures feel distant and disconnected from each other which is reflected by the viewer's literal distance from the interior scene which is separated by a bending glass exterior with no clear entrance. Although Hopper has said the painting does not specifically explore loneliness, he said of the work, “unconsciously, probably, I was painting the loneliness of a large city.” Updike, John (2005).

Known as one of the more popular, and widely reproduced, American oil paintings from the Modern 20th-century art is Nighthawks (1942) by Edward Hopper. Often described as a “timeless” painting, it depicts an every day – or every night – scene of four people in a diner. This is something almost everyone can relate to, but this painting touches on deeper meanings than a diner countertop. Hopper in most of his paintings that involved human subjects used eye-searing, garish color combination.

Cook, Greg, "Visions of Isolation: Edward Hopper at the MFA", Boston Phoenix, May 4, 2007, p.22, Arts and Entertainment. Here’s a short list of paintings by Edward Hopper that shows either one living subject or two or more people together yet they are isolated. The same sense of seclusion that is present in Nighthawks is present in these paintings. This exhibition of emotion is what’s so common in Hopper’s other major work. The sense of loneliness in the presence of people. This is what gives his paintings the quietness, literally and metaphorically. The loneliness and silence of NighthawksIn summary, you can’t get paint that radiates more heat than other surfaces without violating the laws of thermodynamics. I believe your question at the end hits on the “magic” of this paint. It reduces the solar heating by being very reflective and absorbing less energy; instead of radiating more, it reflects sunlight better.
