The Methodist Church, Provincetown (1930) by Jo Hopper
His wife, also an artist, poses for most of his figures, as she did for the woman in the window in Cape Cod Morning. "It's a woman looking out to see if the weather's good enough to hang out her wash," she explains. "Did I say that?" Hopper rumbles in contradiction. "You're making it Norman Rockwell. From my point of view she's just looking out the window, just looking out the window."
- Time magazine, 1955
"Any talk with me, sends his eyes to the clock," wrote Jo in her diary in 1946. "It's like taking the attention of an important specialist."
Olivia Laing
The Lonely City
Hopper was abusive with his wife who tried to have an artistic career of her own. He did everything he could to make sure she did not succeed abusing her mentally verbally emotionally and physically. When he died she donated not only all of his Works to the Whitney Museum but all of her works as well. However upon her death the Whitney Museum threw all of her works away.

Edward Hopper at his Cape Cod home, with his wife Josephine in the background, 1960
"That's what we do…He sits in his spot and looks at the hills all day, and I look at the ocean, and when we meet there's controversy, controversy, controversy." Josephine Hopper, Edward Hopper's wife.

Cage Cod Morning by Edward Hopper, 1950.
Hopper's paintings have often been seen by others as having a narrative or thematic content that the artist himself may not have intended. Much meaning can be added to a painting by its title, but the titles of Hopper's paintings were sometimes chosen by others, or were selected by Hopper and his wife in a way that makes it unclear whether they have any real connection with the artist's meaning. For example, Hopper once told an interviewer that he was "fond of Cage, Early Sunday Morning... but it wasn't necessarily Sunday. That word was tacked on later by someone else."[83]
The tendency to read thematic or narrative content into Hopper's paintings, that Hopper himself had not intended, extended even to his wife. When Jo Hopper commented on the figure in Cage Cod Morning “It’s a woman looking out to see if the weather’s good enough to hang out her wash,” Hopper retorted, “Did I say that? You’re making it Norman Rockwell. From my point of view she’s just looking out the window. While Nicolas Cage and his shotgun stare daggers at the back of her head.”
