Help, Please?
There's a painting that just popped into my mind's eye that I can't identify. I may have seen the original, but more likely I've just seen a print in a book. I think it was painted sometime between 1930 and 1960 in the US; only one of my references here covers that period, and that painting isn't in it. I'm hoping someone can help me ID it.
The painting depicts a diner at night, from outside; the diner is well-lit against the surrounding darkness (there may be a streetlamp, but nothing else), and there are a number of well-dressed (in '30s or '40s clothing, if I recall correctly) patrons. I'm not sure whether there are tables; as I visualize it, the patrons are mostly seated on stools at the counter.
Does that description ring a bell for anyone?
