Description
222 pages. Index. 12 black and white plates. Decorated endpapers. "A Canadian art movement was started, not by professional painters, but by amateurs who fell in love with the spirit of our Ontario Northland. They went there unequipped with the mental paraphernalia of academics and without any sense of the solemnity and importance of rules or methods, in pure holiday spirit; the business of art was subordinate to the joy of the adventures." - from Introduction. Unmarked. Binding intact. Above-average wear. A worthy reading copy of this early Group of Seven reference. Book
