Artist: Edward Hopper (1882-1967)

Medium: Oil on canvas, 72.2 x 101.6cm
Museum: National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.

Postcard acquired: 1999
Notes: I feel that Hopper captures something uniquely American. Although he paints only a small corner of the world, I can still sense the solitude of America's endless landscape beyond the edge of the canvas.
