"Sultry Night" is a painting by Grant Wood, an American painter best known for his depictions of the rural American Midwest. Created in 1939, this lesser-known work diverges from Wood's more famous pieces like "American Gothic" in its subject matter and tone. "Sultry Night" features a male figure standing in a rural setting, pouring a bucket of water over his head to cool off on a hot evening. The painting is notable for its candid representation of nudity, which was a departure from Wood's typically conservative style and caused some controversy at the time of its creation.

The painting's composition reflects Wood's regionalist style, with a focus on the simplicity and directness of rural life. However, the sensual overtones and the intimate portrayal of the subject matter provide a contrast to the often stoic and reserved characters seen in Wood's other works. "Sultry Night" was met with censorship challenges, and as a result, it was not widely exhibited during Wood's lifetime. The painting's history reflects the social mores and cultural tensions of the United States on the eve of World War II, as well as the ongoing debates about art, decency, and censorship.

Today, "Sultry Night" is recognized as an important piece in Grant Wood's oeuvre, offering insight into the artist's range and his ability to capture the multifaceted experiences of American life. The painting is held in a private collection and is occasionally loaned out for exhibitions, allowing the public to appreciate this unique work by one of America's most iconic artists.
