Edward Hopper

House on Pamet River
1934

Watercolor painting depicting a quaint blue and white house with shutters, featuring a red brick chimney and a vintage red bicycle leaning against the front. The artwork captures the essence of a serene, sunny day with shadows casting on the house's facade, surrounded by dry grass and a clear sky. Visible perforations along the paper's edges suggest it may be a piece removed from a sketchbook or pad.
