5. Realism is a type of art that shows things
exactly as they appear in life. It began in the
18th century, but the greatest Realist era was
in the mid-19th century. Most Realists were
from France, but there were some famous
American painters who were Realists also.

His best-known works came from his solitary
wanderings in New York City. These include Early
Sunday Morning, which shows Greenwich Village
shop fronts before people filled the streets, and
Nighthawks, an image of a diner late at night.
Solo shows made Hopper’s reputation: his oils and
watercolours sold well, and critics applauded his
quiet realism, use of light, and above all, his ability
to reveal beauty in the most mundane subjects.
