Description
With a framed oil painting reproduction of Edward Hopper’s “Street Scene, Gloucester”, you can experience a slice of small-town early 20th-century Americana. The New York-born realist painter made a number of trips to Gloucester, Massachusetts during his lifetime, where he found inspiration for more than 100 scenes that depicted modern American life. His summer trips led to more than just paintings as well – he met his wife in Gloucester in 1923! This detailed 1934 Gloucester scene depicts the Cape Ann city where he made his first American outdoor paintings more than 20 years before. Hopper’s painting of a sunny residential street – believed to be Prospect Street – contains two cars but no people, capturing an idyllic vision of his adopted city in the early FDR years. This bright replica wall painting goes well with other modern décor and will add an authentic vividness to your home as you look back on early modernism.
