Edward Hopper

(Small Town Station)
1918–1920

An impressionistic painting depicting a charming red building with a dark roof and ornate windows, surrounded by lush greenery and autumnal trees with yellow leaves. A light blue sky with soft clouds looms above, and in the background, there are hints of other buildings with a dome and spire. In the foreground, a pathway leads to the building's entrance, and two figures appear to be walking near the steps.
