Looking Out, Looking In is a collection of paintings by Andrew Wyeth, one of the best-known U.S. artists of the middle 20th century. This book focuses on the artist’s recurring use of windows as his subject matter in his paintings.
(above) Christina’s World ( on display at the Museum of Modern Art, New York ) is one of Andrew Wyeth’s most prominent paintings. It was the art piece that inspired the look of Ellie/Dina’s farmhouse in The Last Of Us Part II game, and also appeared in the 2013 sci-fi film Oblivion starring Tom Cruise.
This painting was also the inspiration behind Ellie/Dina's farmhouse in #TheLastofUsPartII, and appeared as a framed piece in the 2013 sci-fi film Oblivion. I'm sure the painting has inspired many other films & art work I just don't know about ( yet ). https://t.co/scCBRIlLpV pic.twitter.com/LS6eKhnMFv

When viewing some of the artists’ works Edward Hopper comes to mind; indeed, both Andrew Wyeth and Edward Hopper are considered the top proponents of American Realism painting.
I find myself fondly drawn into the austere and sometimes strangely hypnotic quality of Andrew Wyeth’s paintings. I hope to have the chance to see some of his work in person in the near future.
