Room In New York is painting by Edward Hopper that portrays two individuals in a New York City flat.
It is said to have been inspired by the glimpses of lighted interiors seen by the artist near the district where he lived in Washington Square.
The scene of a brightly lit room is contained within the dark sill of a window. The stark framing makes the room the main focus, drawing the eye and giving realness to the action of peeping into a space where the subjects are unaware they are being watched. But of course the whole scene is just a painting hanging in a museum.
All the best, Gerard
