“Hopper's landscapes made idiosyncratic use of perspective and allowed natural features or signs of Civilization to mark his boundaries.”
Rolf Günter Renner, Hopper

“The view of the exterior, once it is blocked, is replaced by a realistic art of the interior, and the landscape beyond the window is replaced by an "intérieur passage" as air and light enter.”
Rolf Günter Renner, Hopper
