"Automat" is a painting by the American artist Edward Hopper, completed in 1927. The painting depicts a lone woman sitting at a table in an automat, a type of restaurant where customers could purchase food and drink from vending machines. The woman is seated facing away from the viewer, with her back to the large windows behind her. She is holding a cup of coffee and appears to be lost in thought.
The painting is notable for its use of light and shadow to create a sense of isolation and loneliness. The woman is surrounded by empty chairs and tables, and the bright light coming in through the windows creates a stark contrast with the darker interior of the automat. The painting has been interpreted as a commentary on modern urban life, with its emphasis on individualism and alienation.
"Automat" is one of Hopper's most famous works and is often cited as a classic example of American realism. It is part of the permanent collection of the Des Moines Art Center in Iowa.
