A portrait by Grant Wood, "Sentimental" depicts a man in a suit holding a white carnation. The painting exemplifies Wood's Regionalist style, with its smooth surfaces and focus on representing the character of a specific place and its people.
Grant Wood's "Sentimental", painted in 1940, presents a portrait of a man in a tan suit, waistcoat, and bow tie, holding a single white carnation to his nose. The subject, wearing round spectacles, gazes slightly off to the side with a composed expression. The background is a muted, dark tone, which contrasts with the lighter hues of the figure's clothing and skin. The man's suit is meticulously rendered, with attention paid to the fabric's texture and the fall of light across its surface. The carnation, held delicately in his hand, adds a touch of refinement to the composition. Wood was a central figure in the Regionalist art movement, which sought to depict scenes of rural American life, particularly in the Midwest. This work, while a portrait, shares the Regionalist focus on representing the character and sensibility of a specific place and its people. Wood's style is characterised by its smooth surfaces, clear lines, and a degree of stylisation that stops short of caricature. His paintings often convey a sense of quiet dignity and introspection, as seen in this portrait.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
