女士餐桌

Edward Hopper American

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 902

在“大萧条”的背景下,霍普的绘画《女士餐桌》反映了时代的改变,女性不仅已成为工作场合的一部份,如画中的收银员和女服务员一样,而且成为那些为女性提供餐饮服务的地方的新主顾。艺术家以描绘环境的素描和详细的笔记为基础,忠实再现了精巧的食物展示、“鲜红色的木工”、“瓷砖地板”、“美貌的女服务员”,以及“廉价餐馆的粗鄙色彩”。虽然画面明亮,色彩温暖而带有装饰性,但这不是一个特别欢乐的场面。两位用餐者正在交谈,收银员和女服务员则专注于各自的心事和工作。与霍普的许多绘画一样,这种不动声色的写实主义总是唤起孤立和疏远之感,不论是在人的处境中,还是在场景环境中。
