New York Movie ☱ Hopper ☴ Canvas

New York Movie (1939) by Edward Hopper depicts a nearly empty movie theater with only a few moviegoers, and an usher lost in her thoughts, continuing a common theme of separation and loneliness in public places. It is one of his most well-regarded works, praised for its portrayal of multiple light sources. Hopper was fascinated by film, and is said to have spent an entire day at a theater when experiencing a creative block. The movie in the painting is not known, Hopper's wife and fellow painter Josephine Hopper wrote that the image represents snow-covered mountains. The film Lost Horizon (1937), popular at the time, features the Himalayas, making it a likely possibility.

⿴ About Stretched Canvas

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.

⿻ Materials

Giclée printed with eco-solvent inks to resist fading for over 100 years

Canvases are archival-grade, acid-free, satin-finish polycotton fabric

Frames and stretcher bars are solid wood with black backboard and hanging wire installed
