Galerie Mont Haskell’s House – Edward Hopper^ Hopper

In Haskell’s House, Edward Hopper immortalised a Victorian house standing proudly on a green hill. The elegant architecture of the house, with its ornate verandas and pointed dormer windows, contrasts with the clear sky in the background. A telephone pole stands out in front of the scene, a reminder of human intervention in the landscape. Strong shadows play across the whitewashed walls, suggesting a sun high in the sky.

This urban landscape reflects Hopper’s penchant for exploring light and urban solitude. The colours are applied with determination, the visible brushstrokes bringing to life the texture of the grass and bark. Despite the absence of figures, the house becomes the central subject, evoking unspoken stories and a latent presence characteristic of the New Realist movement.
