American Gothic
American Gothic by Grant Wood ( 1891 - 1942 ) painted in 1930, oil on Beaver board, owned by Art Institute of Chicago.
The painting has been parodied in many marketing campaigns, and by couples who re enact the image photographically by facing a camera in the same way as the two figures in the painting, one of them holding a pitchfork or other object in its place.
This is my tribute to the famous painting, and thanks to Bart Shore for original photo of the painting.
