Michelle M: The description of the house provides the reader with a deep understanding of the loneliness felt not only from the house but within the poem. Hoppers painting is almost a spitting image of the poems words in a visual form. Every last detail within the painting can be relayed back to a line within the poem. Which is why it brings me to believe that the poem was very successful at conveying the feeling and emotion that the picture brought upon an observer.

Brooke Mckinnon- The visual evidence in Hopper's Painting tells us that the house is very isolated or in a more rural area. Hirsch interpreted the painting based off the fact that it was isolated and personified the house to enhance how he thought everything around it was so empty and sad feeling. The poet is successful because they make the readers feel and understand the house and its existence.

Skylar Chan- The visual evidence in Hopper's painting helps to show a feeling of isolation by making the area look very rural. Hirsch interpreted the painting in the poem as just this by repeatedly expressing a feeling of loneliness that the house has. He was successful in doing tis because the point he was trying to get across was very clear through his descriptions.

Katrin Ivanova: The visual evidence in Hopper's painting exemplify how lonely, drowsy, and isolated the house could be. You could visually see this by looking around and noticing that there are no other houses in sight near this house, probably largely due to the fact that the house is near train tracks. The house shows no possible evidence that there are people living in the mansion as well. In the poem, Hopper uses adjectives such as "lonely", "devoid of meaning", and especially "empty", that support the physical interpretation from the image of the house. Therefore I believe the author was successful with giving off the same vibe of the house from both the picture and poem by using strong diction with a lonesome tone, as well as using plenty of personification.

Gold Caleb: The position and background of the house matches Hirsch's interpretation of the house. His description of it being strange, gawky, and empty inside and out. The shape of the house and the windows and arches are very extravagant, and the positioning of the house in respect the the railroad is irregular. Also the house has no visible people, furniture, plants or really anything in or near it except the railroad, providing the feeling that the house is devoid and abandoned. The personality and story that Hirsch gives the house in his poem is successful in describing it because it matches its visual appearance.

Sarah Brown- The house is solitary and in an infertile place that people no longer stay. Hirsch gives the house life as he uses personification to give emotion and actions to the shades and architecture. He goes on to interpret Hopper's intentions and mindset as he was painting his view of the house. There is no real way to tell if Hirsch is successful in his interpretation without consulting Hopper himself. Anyone can make up a narrative about something someone created but only the artist themselves can confirm its true meaning.

Jaden J: The visual evidence in hoppers painting features a big blue house in the middle of no where. The Victorian styled home is isolated and looks empty which leads to that it hasn't been occupied for a long time. Hirsch interprets this house using personification to describe the emptiness that one may feel looking at the house. I think The poet was successful in comparing his poem to the painting, because of how he personified the house it made it very easy to connect the words of the poem to that of what the house looks and "feels" like from a readers perspective.

Natalie Longe: The painting and the poem both describe the house as abandoned and isolated from the community. The poem describes the house as a person who has done nothing wrong and doesn't deserve the emptiness and loneliness it has. Hirsch believes the people who once occupied the house are at fault for the house's barrenness. The painting does give off a isolated feeling because the rest of the land is barren, except for the railroad track. The poet was successful because he explains the emptiness the painting portrays and describes the house really well.

Amanda Merrilles: The visual evidence in Hopper's painting accurately depict the isolation of the home. The painting includes elements that show emptiness around and inside of the house. Hirsch was able to interpret this while also being able to describe the loneliness and isolation that that audience feels when looking at this painting. The poet was successful because he was able to give an accurate description of what the painting described and also what readers felt when looking at it.

Aaron Schwartz: The painting shows an empty looking house in, what seems like, the middle of nowhere. Hirsch personifies the house and interprets the painting to mean that the house is ashamed of something that it did. He sees that it is empty  and there are no shrubbery or trees, and says that the house is the reason for that. I think that Hirsch was successful in interpreting the painting because his poem has a similar mood to the painting.

Cara S.- Both the painting and the poem note the emptiness of the mansion. In the painting, the windows have what looks like linen curtains or some sort of fabric draped to prevent fading and and protect the inside of the house if something were to happen. This emptiness is reflected in the poem through Hirsch's repetition of its emptiness or loneliness. Both the poet and the artist were successful in capturing the emptiness and having the views align in their respective works.

Lukumo- Hirsch describes how isolated and different it is from the times they are in now. Due to it's historic and Victorian styles, it hasn't been lived in for a long time. In the poem he blames the house because he doesn't think people would leave such a beautiful house. The house itself almost feels timeless in a sense. I feel as though people does not want to live in there because it's behind the times, but does not  want to tear it down because of its timeless authenticity. You can almost feel the loneliness radiate from the house as it seems to call out for some one to live in there. I guess that's why Hirsch interpreted why Hopper wanted to go back and paint it.

The visual evidence in hopper's painting shows us an isolated eerie kind of house in the middle of nowhere which could have a negative tone in the sense of loneliness and solidarity. Hirsch interpreting the house using personification to make it seem almost like a human being describing it as being "empty", "devoid of meaning", and "Desolate". I believe the poet was successful because both the painter and the poet are able to give the readers a general sense that the house was built and emits a mysterious sense in the fact that it is so empty as well as no trains passing by. The description of the house as being lonely and empty coincides with the simplistic style of the painting. -Nick Ta

Naoshin Kaiser: The visual evidence in Hopper's painting tells us that the house is in an area that could be abandoned or rural and that it is very alone. Hirsch interpreted the painting based off of this and described the house as the reason why everything around it is so gloomy and isolated. I think the poet was successful in comparing the painting into his poem because the painting is very mysterious and peculiar. The way Hirsch describes the painting and gives the house human characteristics gives the painting a sense of meaning other than the fact that it looks so simple; and his description of the house really coincides with the paintings attributes.
