Modelled by Wood's daughter and a local dentist, the painting offers a defiant statement of prosaic regionalism in a cultural world then dominated by the modernist tendencies of Europe and Russia, a reposte perhaps to the expressive works of Picasso, Kandinsky and their fellows. The folk art of \u003ci\u003eAmerican Gothic \u003c\/i\u003epresents a familiar world of local history and imbues it with echoes of Old West photography, with proud owners standing awkwardly in front of their pioneer homesteads. Wood, though, appears subtly to undermine the simplicity of the image with darker implications of the gothic window, the tricorn rake, and the severe expressions of the protagonists, which draw the viewer into the more enigmatic world of the long, dark nights of the American gothic countryside.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Flame Tree Studio\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1786644916\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781786644916\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Flame Tree Gift\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/29\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 1\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Other\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 10.00w x 2.10d\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eNot available to be shipped via Media Mail\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Flame Tree Studio","offers":[{"title":"Other","offer_id":44077366575359,"sku":"9781786644916","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7833e958-c7a2-4712-b5e3-a00b352dba47.jpg?v=1685469575","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/adult-jigsaw-puzzle-grant-wood-flame-tree-studio-9781786644916","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
