"Rooms for Tourists"

Edward Hopper (i) - Oil On Canvas (i) - 107 x 77 cm - 1945 - (Yale University Art Gallery (Hartford, United States)) (i)
Rooms for Tourists, like most of Hopper's scenic paintings, displays the importance of light as a dramatic element. The mood in pictures depends on the special character of light at different times of day, the light also creating a common basis for architectural forms and natural phenomena. Architecture's geometric order and nature's more varied structure are brought together by the clearly delineated shadows, which, however, retain their transparency; the two spheres thus attain balance and harmony. It is obvious, however, that this balance can be achieved only by freeing the buildings from their human context.
