I grew up in the Midwest and have seen American Gothic many times at the Art Institute in Chicago. It’s one of the classic American paintings and instantly recognizable. Wild that the actual house still exists.
It's good to see the house so well preserved.
Such a beautiful quiet place 🙏🏻💙
This is why I've subscribed for many years. Chris takes us to some great places.
Thank you.
I LOVED this video. I always pictured the house to be way bigger.
I noticed that the ceiling of the front porch was painted a very pale blue. That was a very old custom in the South. It was believed it would keep away hauntings. I never knew the house was real. That was such a severe looking couple. I thought they were married as well. Very cool history.
Oh wow...I am from Arkansas but never heard that about the light blue paint on porch ceilings! Thanks for mentioning this!! ❤
As an Iowan, I’ve never been to visit this house. I probably should one day. I should also visit the Field of Dreams baseball field. Great video Chris, keep up the great work!
An Iowan here too and I was just thinking that seeing those places would be some nice weekend/ day trips.
So cool you tracked that down. Never dawned on me it was real. Funny story, growing up we had a copy in the den. A friend from elementary school said, hey are those your grandparents? 😂 When you’re back down in Bucks/Hunterdon Co. there are two Gothic structures. One a garage in Doylestown & a home in Frenchtown
Always liked that Baby Blue paint used in Victorian House's porch ceilings.
I had no idea it was still around. I figured it would be long gone. Glad you found it! Beautiful! Thank you for sharing!
That was such a cool trip. I grew up on a farm and used to wish my house looked like the painting’s house. Such a surprise to find out it was real. Thank you for sharing all the interesting info. And most of all, thank you for taking me along ❤
I pass thru Eldon on my way to oskaloosa at least once a week, Eldon is a nice town. The house was a private residence until about 15 years ago. It's been restored well, when I saw it just after it was sold by the family of the owner, it was in pretty poor condition, and the back porch was cluttered. Looks much better now
@@CassAndra1111 Missouri, I come up highway 1 from keosaqua to 16, then on 34 to ottumwa then 63 straight up to oskaloosa
It’s absolutely gorgeous!! I’d love to live there💙Great find and background Chris!! Thanks so much!!
I don't think most people think "it's just a house", and if they do, I think they're missing the perspective and respect towards the world that you have that's so important! Just the fact that the house is from the 1800s is impressive and deserves respect and admiration, let alone that it's such an integral part of american history that it's in a painting that I think most people have seen at some point in their lives.
I love this. Thanks so much for posting. Fantastic! Really cool!
Oh yes i have seen that painting many times and showing the house is such a treat. Thank you so much! I really enjoy your videos!
I have seen that painting but knew nothing about it. Thank you for all this information.
farmer and daughter... learn something new every day.
Very cool. LOVE the history. Seen the picture. Didnt know it actually existed!! Being able to "stand in a painting". Pretty cool!!
Thank you. I thought it was a man and his wife. Nice to know. ☺️
Me too !
This was great!
One of my favorites.
Thanks and well done, Chris
Thank you so much for sharing! Such an interesting history tidbit. 👍🇨🇦
Fascinating video, Chris! Thanks for taking us there!
Another great video Chris! Thank-you so much! And safe travels 💕
Lol...I love how you are "in the painting"! That's a cool little house...I never knew there was a real house that was used as the background. I also always thought that the painting was of an old farmer and his wife. Thank you for telling the real story and for showing us not only the house but also the real people who were the models. ❤
I really appreciated this story Chris! Who knew? 😊
Love the screen in porch, it's a beautiful house, seen the painting in several places and magazines I didn't know it was a real house in the mid west , husband and wife living on a farm painting
They should make this into an air b&b! It’s beautiful & I’m hoping to get there one day. What a great piece of history, I’m glad it’s still standing.
I'm glad if it doesn't become an airbnb. I don't think the american gothic house needs drunken parties in it!
@@linollieum3742 Ah. I’m not an irresponsible, disrespectful a-hole so I don’t think of using air b&bs for that purpose. It would be a unique place to stay (like the giant potato or the underwater hotel in the keys).
Thank you, Chris! ❤
What a cute house! So glad that it is still around. The American Gothic painting is in the Art Institute of Chicago, seen it many times as a kid growing up there.
Wow, so interesting. I never knew the history of the painting and surely didn;t know it was a real house. And lol I also thought it was a married couple. Thank you so much the video, glad you ran across this. Enjoy and be safe on your travels.
Great thumbnail Chris! 😁. Guess I never really paid that much attention to the house.
Adorable 🥰. Lace curtains
Never knew it was a real house in the painting thank you Chris take care.
Never seen a backside of a painting before.😆 I always thought the painting was from the tv show Green Acres. I guess it's vice versa.
Another great interesting video Chris. Thanks for sharing 👊👍🇬🇧🇺🇸
I love this house. I wish you would have gone round the back and looked inside the sunroom.
Her look and his pitchfork always struck me as foreboding. 😏
Very cool, Chris. I love these kinds of visits. Would love to see you visit the school in The Birds.
Thank You for this!
Is pretty cool , nice to the back story 🇺🇸
Wonderful Chris! Having spent a good portion of my life in Minnesota, the "American Gothic" painting is a favorite. Next time I'm in Iowa I'll stop by. Ciao!
Sometimes the unexpected gems are the best.Great video as ever
I also thought it was a man and wife. Well, now we know. Thank you, Chris. I really like that house. I wish we could have seen the inside.
Excellent job. I really knew nothing about the history of this painting. I thought it was just some painter that had a lot of skills imagined it in his mind and the people weren't real the house wasn't real. The back story to this painting after seeing it for 43 years off and on makes it even more special. Thank you so much for sharing the picture now I have some trivial knowledge trivia knowledge I mean and I'm going to ask people do you think the man and the woman her husband and wife?
Never knew it existed. It is pretty cool!
Glad they never moved it, it looks just fine where it is! A piece of well known art history!
This is so interesting, seen the photo many times, great video thank you. 😊
Have that painting in my old farmhouse!
What a beautiful house. Love your videos!!
That was a awesome story thanks so much. I love your videos you post
Another great video. You find some very interesting things. 👍👍
OK you stood in a famous painting but I can top that. While hiking Yosemite I took a dump in an Ansel Adams photograph. It was surreal! Great video. I didn't know this house really existed.
That was awesome. Good to know
Cool thanks for sharing 👍
Great video man thumbs up my friend
That’s soooo koooool ! I have always wonder.
That is too cool!! I thought the whole thing was just a painting, never knew it was a real house and real people lol. Who'd have thought they were the artist's sister and dentist LMBO 😂😂😂
As a big fan of art, it's difficult to put into words how much I enjoyed this. (so I won't even try. ;-) Coool, thanks.
Oh wow that's really awesome!!!
Great job! very interesting.
Great info
Thanks much
Your truly right its not just a house your look at a peace of history something way past or time in a value of such evidence is just horific!!! By the way Real impressed on how you explain your vids and give a brief intell on this historical peace and place of joy.
Thank you very interesting.
just love your videos.
I love Rocky Horror Picture Show movie with Tim curry and they recreated the look at the wedding scene 😊
Very cool!
Absolutely
Allways assumed, man and wife.
Good one Chris, who'd have thought!
👍👍👍
Very interesting thanks!
Wow!
Very very cool 😎
Cool vlog
Fantastic. I never knew the house was real or still in existence. Thank you for taking us there! I wonder if it's owned by the city or by the Dibble family. I'm betting the city or st
State. Sorry for the typo.
Very internet video! Thanks so much ❤️
It's even in the rocky horror picture show 😁
Your a super cool Man....
he must've added the red barn in the background, i didn't see one nearby, unless there used to be one there and it's gone now?
I HAD to click on the video after seeing the thumbnail pic!
Haha 👍
I "have to" say it. It's based on the intro pic to the vid: "Are you photobombing AGAIN-N-N-N????"
There. Nice to get that off my chest. Wait. 😂🙃😁😆😇😜🤪🤫🤭
I learned something new today (man & daughter, not wife).
1930?! I thought the painting was much older than that. I too thought it was a husband & wife.
Grant wood is distant kin to actor Elijah wood. Both from Iowa.
House is kinda creepy. As in Psycho house creepy! "Norman, bring me my coffee!!"
So weird, in my mind it is a big farm house. Now that I look at the painting you can see it's smaller.
Neat😊
Do they do tours of the inside of the house.
A American classic I believe. Now that you told us I can see father and daughter. I will forever see sister and dentist now. 😂
Very Intersting
🎊🎄🇮🇳🎄🎊
cool I'm an Iowan lol
Mandela effect thinking it was moved
Dude you were like a mile away from Roseanne Barr and Tom Arnold's abandoned house in the woods
Never knew the house was real and the two people were supposed to be father and daughter
I also thought was husband & wife, interesting thnx
👍✌
And a Jesse James cave
Does anyone live in the house.
this too cool, you too young for this pic,, chris, haha
You should have hmu I'm 20 min away and I can show you the cool stuff around here
Very cool!
