Answer 2

One difference between the ways that Pablo Picasso's painting Portrait of Ambroise Vollard and Edward Hopper's painting Nighthawks convey space is decomposition.

Step-by-step explanation:

• Hopper's art of capturing the atmosphere and almost cinematic scenery by reducing the elements in the picture is truly unique and recognizable. The aesthetics of his works are based on the author's unique understanding of expressive possibilities of playing with light and simplifying forms.

• Pablo Picasso's painting Portrait of Ambroise Vollard is characterised by dark brown tones and painted as if looking at objects from multiple angles at once. It is a movement of an eyeball that has always been immobile in art until then.

• Analytical Cubism is characterized by decomposition - decomposition of reality into individual views that are simultaneously presented in one surface. By his experiments, he opted for simple object shapes that allowed side views, top views, and the like.
