Self-Portrait 1930

Edward Hopper's 1930 "Self-Portrait" presents a somber and introspective view of the artist. The painting depicts Hopper in a dark suit and fedora, his gaze directed towards the viewer with a detached, almost melancholic expression. The simple composition and muted colors evoke the atmosphere of Hopper's signature style, emphasizing loneliness and urban isolation. This self-portrait, housed at the Whitney Museum of American Art, is a compelling example of Hopper's ability to capture the essence of American realism.
