Edward Hopper in Vermont
This exhibit assembles for the first time many of Hoppers Vermont watercolors and drawings. Relatively unknown and rarely on view, they depict the landscape of central Vermont, in the White River Valley and on the South Royalton farm where the artist summered in the late 1930s. Marked by nuances of distinctive color, light, and shadow, these are studies in artistic process, illustrating how Hoppers vision of Vermont developed between the time of his first visit, in 1927, and his last, in 1938.
