Description:

In many ways the stark jack pine, painted against a background of lake and sky, has come to symbolize the Canadian north. Artist Tom Thomson stands as one of the few who succeeded in transmitting onto canvas the bold colours and outlines of a northern Ontario autumn and winter. How completely he accomplished this is proved by comparative shots of his sketches and the Algonquin Park landscape that was his subject. Distinguished fellow artists Lawren Harris, A.Y. Jackson, and Arthur Lismer pay tribute to the genius whose career was cut short so tragically. <20mn>
