Title- Nighthawks Artist Edward Hopper and he was born in Nyack,New York

year it was made 1942 medium used- oil on canvas.

2. my first impresson that its a regualr monday and 4 people are having coffee

3. Hopper was inspired by a dinner where he lived greenwich village and shows a typical night people having dinner he used night owl a term to say people stay up late edward was a artist a very good one. As a young teenager he was making his own cartoons using charcoal and oil and paint.

4. I see contrast because everything look dark except inside the dinner place. Theres also leading lines where the artist wants you too see from. I think its asymetrical because its balanced because theres another building but inside its not balanced because there's 1 person side and on the other there's 3 people.
