Motel Western (Western Motel) - Edward Hopper
Yale University Art Gallery New Haven Estados Unidos
OST - 77x128 - 1957
Edward Hopper found inspiration in the commonplace of American
life. In Western Motel, an anonymous motel bedroom becomes a
symbol of the mobility and rootlessness of modern life. The spare furnishings,
stark interior, and sharp bands of light produce a composition of masterful
simplicity, yet one that is layered with psychological ambiguity. The woman
staring across the room does not seem to see us; the pensiveness of her
stare and her tense posture accentuate the sense of some impending event. She
appears to be waiting: the luggage is packed, the room is devoid of personal
objects, the bed is made, and a car is parked outside the window.
