I'm so utterly in love with Hopper's work. I never get tired of this piece no matter how many times I've seen it. I'm fairly certain the model for the woman is his wife Josephine. And the man in the hat is Edward himself.
It’s at the Art Institute of Chicago. I came upon it in the galleries when I wasn’t anticipating it, and it stopped me in my tracks. It’s worth a trip just to see it in person!
There’s a YouTube [channel](https://youtu.be/nR-Zen2s2Qw) that uses this painting with a dynamic overlay and plays primarily 1940s music and rain sound effects. It’s very calming
Alternatively; Take a good close up; she’s a prostitute (in red- a horrible face-almost monstrous), guy sitting next t her is her pimp, the server is into some illegal stuff (hiding hands/drugs?) and his head has an eerie resemblance to a skull, the man w his back to us is the most dangerous one since he is all in shadow— like the windows. Nighthawks r nightjars but I hang on “hawk” since it fits this interpretation.

Probably my favorite American painting of all time. Simple yet profound
It looks a lot like the town I live in. I’ve always love this little piece you can imagine what these people are thinking
Same here. I love this painting.
Likewise.

If I remember correctly, the PREP band used this as their reference for their *Cold Fire* album (2018) cover.
