Grant Wood (1891-1942) is Iowa’s most famous artist and his painting American Gothic is one of America’s most famous paintings. Wood was born on a farm but moved to Cedar Rapids when he was ten years old after the death of his father. From then on, Wood lived most of his life in Cedar Rapids or Iowa City, dying of cancer the day before his 51st birthday. During the Great Depression, few artists could afford travel costs to study in Europe, and consequently, the Regionalist movement arose at an opportune time. Grant Wood became the spokesman for the Regionalist painting movement of the 1930s when he famously remarked that he “got all his best ideas for painting while milking a cow. This is an incredible opportunity to own the art of one of America's best known artists! Great investment! This will almost certainly continue to go up in value!
