Grant Wood was an American painter born in Anamosa, Iowa in 1891. He is best known for his regionalist style, which depicted rural life in the Midwest. Wood studied at the Art Institute of Chicago and later in Europe, where he was influenced by the works of the Old Masters. He returned to the United States in 1926 and settled in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, where he taught at the local art school. Wood's most famous painting is "American Gothic," which depicts a stern-looking farmer and his daughter standing in front of their farmhouse. The painting has become an iconic image of American art and has been parodied countless times. Wood's other works often featured similar themes of rural life and the people who lived it. Wood died in 1942 at the age of 50 from pancreatic cancer. Despite his relatively short career, he left a lasting impact on American art and is remembered as one of the most important regionalist painters of the 20th century.
