The letter from Grant Wood in the above post came from this site: www.campsilos.org/mod2/students/wood_letter.htmComments about the letter: Check out Grant Wood's comments about American Gothic and what he portrayed in this painting. Grant Wood died in Iowa City on the eve of his 50th birthday. That same week his 'American Gothic' was winning acclaim in a display of realistic U.S. art, "Decade of American Painting, 1930-40" at the Worcester, Massachusetts Art Museum.
