American Gothic by Grant Wood
  • 40.917641-92.2283731 American Gothic House, Eldon. In 1930, Grant Wood created an iconic painting of a woman standing next to a man holding a pitchfork standing in front of a plain farmhouse in Southern Iowa. The painting has become one of the world's most recognized paintings in American art. Visit the house and a small site museum and stand next to life-size figures of the man and woman to make your own silly selfies. OSM directions (updated Feb 2025)
