Edward Hopper

(Landscape with Fence and Trees)
1916–1919

Impressionist-style painting depicting a sunlit park scene with vibrant green trees and a path leading through the grass. Two figures appear to be walking in the distance, and the foreground features the dark silhouette of a tree trunk, adding depth to the composition. The brushstrokes are thick and expressive, suggesting movement and the play of light across the landscape.
