Erroneously attributed to Edward Hopper on several websites. This is one painter's homage to Hopper, not a painting BY Hopper. (For one thing, Hopper, I believe, would never had included the hat. And perhaps not the reflection in the glass and the door knob either.) [sh] "Above is a painting that's something of a love letter to the painting [Rooms by the Sea] by the famous American realist painter Edward Hopper.... Hopper's painting is a fictionalized version of the corner of his painting room in the studio he had built for himself in 1934 out near the tip of Cape Cod in South Truro, MA. In a lot of ways its a hymn to the beauty of the sea and the famous Cape Cod light. My own painting is more naturalistic and is a bit more faithful to the actual arrangement of the doors, the sunlight, and the water. Considering all the restraints I allowed reality to place on myself, I didn't do half bad." [http://philipkochpaintings.blogspot.nl/2010/04/good-news-about-edward-hoppers-legacy.html]
