Portrait of Orleans - Edward Hopper
Edward Hopper's Portrait of Orleans depicts a peaceful scene in a coastal village in Orleans, Massachusetts. The composition highlights a row of traditional houses with white facades and sloping roofs, surrounded by lush vegetation. The dominant colours are soft, natural tones such as greens, whites and browns, which create a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
In the foreground, a winding road leads through the village and an "Esso" gas station sign, inviting the viewer to explore this tranquil scene. Portrait of Orleans thus illustrates the artist's ability to capture the essence of everyday life in small-town America.
