Edward Hopper

(Small Town on Cove)
1923–1924

A vibrant watercolor painting depicting a coastal scene with a large building on a hill, surrounded by smaller houses and lush greenery. The foreground shows a sandy beach leading to a body of water with a few boats, under a sky with soft clouds. The artwork captures the essence of a sunny, serene day by the sea.
