The painting displays a classic American road-side gas station from the 1950s. The man's attire, a suit and tie (as was often the custom in those years), stands out, as does the absence of the element that would complete the concept, in this case: cars. As is usual in Hopper's works, for example: Four-lane Highway (without cars) or House by the Train Tracks (without people or train).

His work doesn’t just show buildings or figures: it reveals the space between them, that moment when time seems to stop and the soul looks inward.
