Bright sunlight (as an emblem of insight or revelation), and the shadows it casts, also play symbolically powerful roles in Hopper paintings such as Early Sunday Morning (1930), Summertime (1943), Seven A.M. (1948), and Sun in an Empty Room (1963).
Skarpt sollys (som symbol på indsigt eller åbenbaring) og de skygger, der skabes af lyset, spiller en vigtig rolle i Hoppers værker, eksempelvis Early Sunday Morning (1930), Summertime (1943), Seven A.M. (1948), og Sun in an Empty Room (1963).
