His [Edward Hopper] pictures were conceived by a complex process that included first hand observation, memory, severe simplification, and a creative synthesis of all elements into imagery that had universal and permanent meaning. He was a highly conscious composer, and through command of massive form, full-bodied color and all-revealing light, he achieved plastic designs of great substance, power and completeness. - Lloyd Goodrich, Edward Hopper at Kennedy Galleries, exhibition catalogue, New York, 1977
