Edward Hopper

Study for Route 6, Eastham
1941

A pencil sketch depicting a rural landscape with a series of houses along a road. The houses have gabled roofs and appear to be farmhouses. In the foreground, there's a road running horizontally, and in the background, there are utility poles receding into the distance. The artist's signature is visible in the lower right corner.
