Cape Cod Evening ☵ Hopper ☳ Canvas
Cape Cod Evening (1939) by Edward Hopper depicts a woman and man in front of a Victorian house, surrounded by trees and long grass. The man is unsuccessfully attempting to summon a collie standing in the yard, alerted by something out of sight. Hopper described the scene as "pieced together from sketches and mental impressions ... the dry, blowing grass can be seen from my studio window in the late summer or autumn ... the dog is listening to something, probably a whippoorwill or some evening sound." Typical of his paintings, the setting and representation of the subjects cast a melancholy if not ominous mood over a commonplace scene.

Stretched canvas art is created from a giclée print on canvas (instead of paper), and like a traditional painting, the canvas is hand-stretched over a solid wood frame. It can be mounted in a float frame, or displayed on its own. The sides of the canvas are finished in a solid color that complements the artwork, creating a modern masterpiece ready to hang on your wall, without a frame.
