Hopper’s Tables for Ladies –
Edward Hopper, 1930
We’re in a restaurant. We can see a waitress wearing a white uniform,
who is adjusting food at the window and another woman is tending to
business at her register. There’s also a couple that sits quietly in the
interior. The painting’s title alludes to a recent social innovation which
establishes " tables for ladies" in order to welcome their newly mobile
female customers, who, if seen dining alone in public previously, were
assumed to be prostitutes.
