Edward Hopper

Study for Hotel Lobby
1942

A sketch on tan paper depicting an interior scene with two figures wearing hats seated at a table. The room features a window, a draped curtain, and what appears to be a piano or large piece of furniture on the right. The drawing is executed with loose, expressive lines, creating a sense of depth and shadow.
