Edward Hopper

(A Theater Entrance)
1906–1910

An illustration depicting an early 20th-century scene where a woman in a black dress and large hat exchanges words with a man in a brown suit and green hat outside a building. In the background, two other figures are entering the building, and a sign with unreadable text is visible to the side. The style is reminiscent of fashion illustrations of that era.
