Did Grant Wood ever visit the Tuscany region of Italy?

 

Apparently not, according to this information from the Cedar Rapids Museum of Art.

Between 1920 and 1928, Grant Wood made four trips to Europe. His first was to Paris in the summer of 1920 with his painter-friend Marvin Cone. The second trip, from 1923 to 1924, allowed him to study at the Académie Julian in Paris, during which time he also traveled to Sorrento, Italy. At the end his stay in Paris, a gallery agreed to hold an exhibition of Wood’s work. In the summer of 1926, Wood returned to Paris for his exhibition but the show did not launch his career as he had hoped it would. Wood’s final trip to Europe was in 1928, when he traveled to Munich to help fabricate a large stained glass window at the Emil Frei Art Glass studio.
