Edward Hopper: An Intimate Biography

Gail Levin

#2938 of 3,809 books · #1048 in Biography & Memoir

Shortlisted for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize for Biography (1996).

Edward Hopper's canvasses are filled with stripped-down spaces and unrelenting light, evocative landscapes, and the lonely aspects of men and women seemingly isolated in their surroundings. What kind of man had this haunting vision, and what kind of life engendered this art? In this intimate biography, art historian Gail Levin reveals the true nature and personality of the man himself—and of the woman who shared his life, the artist Josephine Nivison.
