Ellison Bernard Hoover (1888-1955) was an American painter, lithographer and cartoonist. He is best remembered as an artist for his atmospheric prints of scenes in New York, Paris and elsewhere, ââ¬Åbeautiful black and white representations of rural and urban landscapes complemented by faint, ghostly details, leaving much of the viewerââ¬â¢s imagination to wander and fill in ambiguous spacesââ¬Â.
