Edward Hopper

(Harlequin and Lady in Evening Dress)
c. 1900

A watercolor painting depicting two figures from behind, standing on a checkered floor against a backdrop of dark green trees and a blue sky. The figure on the left is wearing a green and yellow diamond-patterned top with a white collar and a black hat with a red band, while the figure on the right is dressed in an elegant black gown with a red flower in her hair, holding a black fan. The scene suggests a moment of contemplation or observation of the landscape ahead.
