EDITORS COMMENTS
Edward Hopper's captivating charcoal on wove paper drawing, "Burlesque Theatre, Times Square, early 1940s," transports us back in time to a bygone era in American history. This evocative work of art, created by the renowned Ashcan School artist, offers a glimpse into the vibrant and colorful world of Burlesque Theatre in the heart of Times Square during the 1940s. The black and white drawing depicts a bustling playhouse, filled with the energy and excitement of the era. The theater's marquee, adorned with bold letters and enticing advertisements, beckons passersby to enter and experience the spectacle within. Balconies and balconies, filled with curious onlookers, provide a bird's eye view of the action below. Hopper's masterful use of charcoal creates a sense of depth and texture, bringing the architectural features of the theater to life. The intricate details of the building's facade, from the ornate molding to the intricate brickwork, are rendered with precision and care. The interior of the theater is just as captivating, with the stage bathed in a warm, inviting light, ready to host the next performance. This drawing is a testament to Hopper's ability to capture the essence of a moment in time, and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that continues to shape our country. It is a must-see for any art enthusiast, historian, or anyone interested in the history of American theater and the arts. This rare and beautiful work of art is currently on exhibit at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world.
