Edward Hopper: Forty Masterworks Art Book

This is a softcover art monograph titled 'Edward Hopper: Forty Masterworks,' published as part of the Schirmer's Visual Library series. The front cover features a high-quality reproduction of Hopper’s most famous painting, 'Nighthawks' (1942), displaying a late-night diner scene with four figures. The book is bound in a heavy-weight paper cover with a matte or semi-gloss finish. The typography is modern and clean, with the artist's name and title centered at the top and the publisher's imprint at the bottom. Regarding condition, the cover shows visible signs of handling and wear typical for a used book: there are noticeable vertical scratches and surface scuffs on the dark ink of the central image, slight discoloration or yellowing near the edges of the white border, and minor blunting at the corners. There is also a small blemish or sticker residue mark on the lower right-hand side. The binding appears intact based on the front edge view. This specific edition of the Schirmer's Visual Library was likely published between the late 1980s and 1990s, aiming to provide accessible, high-quality visual reproductions of major American Realist works. The color printing remains vibrant despite the surface abrasions.
