This composition captures a soothing moment of reflection in the early morning, where the warmth of a steaming cup of coffee meets harmoniously with the awakening of a city. The warm hues of the sunrise streaming in through the large windows create a captivating contrast to the clean lines of the urban skyline. The emphasis is on the balance between inside and outside, tranquillity and bustle, with the coffee as a central element that evokes a sense of serenity.
The art style of this work evokes the atmosphere of modernism and art deco, with clean, geometric shapes defining the urban environment. The soft but expressive colours are reminiscent of the work of Edward Hopper, especially in the way light and shadow are used to capture an intimate, quiet moment. There are also pop art influences in the bright colour contrasts and the almost stylised depiction of the city.
This artwork looks great in a modern living or working space, where it can serve as both a source of inspiration and a point of rest. Hang it in a place where natural light can complement it, for example in a breakfast room or next to a large window, to fully show off the work's colours and theme.
