Check out http://www.piotrwolodkowicz.com and the painting is called a drunk. It is of an emotionally and lonely person left with nothing but his drink.Any one know any paintings which express isolation?

Gustave Caillebotte (French, 1848-1894)


On the Pont de l'Europe 1876-77





Man, that's one cold, lonely image. Its like being there with a cheap camera on a cold winter day.

One famous one can be The Scream by Edvard Munch. In the painting the person screaming is portrayed as alone. When looking closely at the picture everything else is in pairs. The two people on the bridge and the two boats in the water. The sky gives an eerie feeling of loneliness. I believe this is best suited for isolation.
a lot of Edward Hoppers work shows this
the scream
