The windows of the Woolworth Building, New York City

The Woolworth Building, at 57 stories, is one of the oldest—and one of the most famous—skyscrapers in New York City. More than 95 years after its construction, it is still one of the fifty tallest buildings in the United States as well as one of the twenty tallest buildings in New York City. The building is a National Historic Landmark, having been listed in 1966.

Window Views #16

Welcome again to Window Views. The painting above caught my eye and I thought "Edward Hopper." But of course it wasn't. As a matter of fact it wasn't even signed.

The marvelous shadows enter the room through a near door (which I at first didn't realize) and the other shadow is through a WINDOW in a living rood or bedroom.

My biggest question became "If I went out that door how deep is the drop to the first step?" And then I laughed.

Just so you see what I mean by the painting looking like an Edward Hopper print, here's a Hopper:

READY FOR IT?


Yup! there it is called Rooms by the Sea, 1951 by Edward Hopper

Edward Hopper was an American painter and printmaker best remembered for his eerily realistic depictions of solitude in contemporary American life. While most popularly known for his oil paintings, he was equally proficient as a watercolorist and printmaker in etching. For several years he worked as a commercial artist, but he also continued painting in New York City and Massachusetts.

Now of course it bothers me that I missed the signature. It must be someplace on the print!
