Modelled after Edward Hopper's wife, this absolutely beautiful hand-embellished stretched canvas by John Myatt captures the radiant warmth and chilling loneliness of Hopper's original artwork 'Morning Sun'. The epochal artwork, painted in 1952, is one of the most crucial works of 20th century realism and here, its bright contrasts and bold simplicity have been captured by world renowned artist and forger John Myatt.

As production continues on his own film biopic that sets to capture the incredible life and career of the world-famous art forger, here John has turned to one of his own favourite artists. The work of American realist Edward Hopper, as John describes, captures a deeper understanding of life in an urban and industrial society. Using bold contrasts and geometrically designed compositions, John has not only captured the gorgeous modern aesthetics of his work but, also the dramatic narratives that speak of isolation, familiarity and cityscapes.
