"Fertility" is an oil painting by noted American artist, Grant Wood, created in 1939 towards the end of the Great Depression. Emblematic of Wood's style of Regionalism, the painting presents a pastoral depiction of rural American Midwest life, reflecting the artist's Iowa upbringing. The composition emphasizes agricultural abundance and the nurturing qualities of the earth.

In "Fertility", Wood's use of vibrant colors and precise lines illustrates a field full of ripe watermelons, with a solitary woman in the foreground. This woman, dressed in an archaic style reminiscent of 19th-century frontier clothing, represents an idealized agrarian figure typical of Wood's oeuvre. Her presence implies a human connection with the land, and her role might be interpreted as the personification of fertility itself, mirroring the bountiful harvest depicted.

Like many of Wood's works, "Fertility" explores themes of rural life, tradition, and the idyllic representation of the American Midwest. While such themes helped establish his reputation as one of America's foremost Regionalist painters, they also prompted critique and controversy, with some arguing that such depictions oversimplified or romanticized rural life.

"Fertility" was painted during a period of profound economic and social change in the United States, and its themes of abundance and fertility can be seen as a counterpoint to the turmoil and scarcity associated with the Great Depression. Today, the painting remains a testament to Wood's artistic vision, his appreciation for rural America, and his unique contribution to the American art of his time.
