Thanks to GMG, here’s a nice note and a family photo sent in to Joey in response to the pictures of EDWARD HOPPER ALL AROUND GLOUCESTER.

Hi Joe – we corresponded awhile back about Cigar Joe and my grandparents who lived on Gould Ct.

I mentioned that my great grand parents – Joe Ciaramitaro – not your Joe J – had lived in the Haskell House way back…. I saw the Hopper painting of the Haskell House in your feed … to complete the circle – here’s a wedding picture from my great aunt Catherine, taken on the stairs at the Haskell House in 1945.

And since you know Gould Ct., there’s a great Hopper painting of the Unitarian church that looks like it might have been painted from somewhere on Gould Ct.

Enjoy. Steve Auditore

I revisited Gould Ct; five others mentioned that vantage point, too. Please share more stories or locations (more than 90 and not all known!) about Edward Hopper all around Gloucester.

About E.J.

Artist, researcher, spiritual traveler of this fascinating orb we inhabit, lover of life and all it has to offer. Hi everyone out there in GMG land. My name is Ellen “E.J.” Lefavour (a/k/a “Ejay Khan” – the pseudonym I used during my years as a political activist artist). I am a newcomer to Cape Ann, and thrilled to be a new contributor to Good Morning Gloucester. I am a painter and photographer who has lived and worked as an artist for 20 years, since leaving the corporate world in 1990 to pursue my passion. My contributions to GMG will consist of images (either my paintings, photographs, or the occasional video) and a little history about the image, called “Did you Know?” I hope to come up with tidbits of information that people don’t already know, or had forgotten they knew. As I am new here, everything is new and fascinating to me, especially the amazing history, so bear with me if I post something that is common knowledge – I’ll eventually come up with something that’s new to you. Please take a minute to comment on my posts, like them or not, especially if you have corrections or something to add, as that is how I, and all of us, learn. Have a Good Morning Gloucester, and a blessed day.
