About the Artist
Grant Wood (born Feb. 13, 1891, near Anamosa,
Iowa, U.S. — died Feb. 12, 1942, Iowa City, Iowa) was an American
painter. He was trained as a craftsman and designer as well as a
painter. On a visit to Germany in 1928, he was strongly influenced by
the sharp detail of 15th-century German and Flemish paintings, and he
soon abandoned his Impressionist manner for the detailed, realistic
manner for which he is known. His American Gothic caused a sensation
when exhibited in 1930. A telling portrait of the sober, hardworking
Midwestern farmer, it has become one of the best-known icons of U.S.
art, though it is often misinterpreted: the woman is not the man's wife
but rather the unmarried daughter designated to stay on the farm to
assist her widowed father.
