painting of a man enjoying a painting by Edward Hopper

In Morning Sun, the woman - modeled after Hopper's wife, Jo - faces the sun impassively and she seems to be lost in thought. The bare wall and the elevation of the room above the street also suggest the bleakness and solitude of impersonal urban life. Then again she could just quietly enjoy the morning sun.
The figure looking at her comes prepared for a different type of weather as he is holding a folding umbrella.
All the best, Gerard
