## Caption

You might not be familiar with these early works by Edward Hopper. 👀

Most people know him for his famous oil paintings—those poetic images of loneliness and isolation. But his early etchings give us a unique look at where his journey began.

In these foundational prints, you can already see the themes that defined his later work: solitary souls, lost in their own worlds, marked by sharp light and deep shadow. ✍️
