Nighthawks

Edward Hopper created the iconic painting known as "Nighthawks". It is one of my favorite pieces of artwork and in the piece the people are lost souls who don't know and to me Nighthawks represents purgatory. The piece is eerie and it is dark and drew me in to it. Actually Nighthawks was one of the first artworks that I paid attention to not only is it eerie and dark I couldn't stop staring it actually left me in trance and lost in the world of Nighthawks. The artist who created this piece has other works like this where he would paint actual scenes from around New York, it is only the place where he lived.
