More about Meet me on the corner when the lights are coming on (after Hopper)

An oil painting by Edward Hopper shows a brightly lit diner at night from an outside perspective looking into the diner. It is painted in a realist style. The diner is on the corner of a street with a deep green exterior and large windows that show the warmly lit interior. There are two people inside the diner. A man in a dark suit and white shirt sits at the counter on the left side of the image, facing right. He holds a glass in his left hand. A woman with dark hair sits at a table to the right, looking down at an object in front of her. Red booths line the walls of the diner. The street outside is dark, with soft light cast by streetlights and the light from the building. Several dark buildings are visible in the background against a deep blue night sky with a single star. A red sign that says "PLEASE WAIT" is posted on a pole on the street next to the diner. The overall mood is one of quiet solitude.
