People in the sun - Edward Hopper
Edward Hopper's People in the Sun depicts a peaceful, sunny scene with five figures relaxing outside. The figures are sitting on wooden chairs enjoying the warmth of the sun. To the left, a man is reading a newspaper, while the four figures in front of him gaze forward at the landscape. The sunlight illuminates their faces and creates strong shadows, highlighting the contrasts between the light and shadowed areas. Bright colours dominate the work, including the blue of the sky and the yellow of the field, as well as the warm tones of the clothes and benches. The painting invites the viewer to feel the stillness of this sunny day and to question the relationships between the characters.
