Plaid Sweater

Grant Wood's lesser known portraits of the gothic face of American lifestyle are just as amazing as the American Gothic the looney tunes so many time mocked. For instance this Plaid Sweater kid

Plaid Sweater, 1931

29 1/2 x 24 1/8 in (74.9 x 61.3 cm)

Becomes an instant favorite.

Perhaps all of us are a little bit plaid at some point. With inter-related ideas that pattern our lives.

I might be going to the Summer@Brown program... we'll see how that goes.
