Fantastic exhibit at the Vancouver Art Gallery until November 8th - "That Green Ideal: Emily Carr and the Idea of Nature" .
Emily Carr's paintings have shaped how I see the North Shore forests, in blues, lime green and purple. Great to see so many of the Art Gallery's collection on the display, and great information.

A lucky find, and a lovely piece of art from Emily Carr's early career. I hope it ends up in a museum so it can be enjoyed by the public.

"Autumn in France," Emily Carr, 1911.

Carr was a Canadian artist, famous for her works depicting the PNW and First Nations peoples, which she did with unusual respect and deference for a white person of the time.

This canvas comes from a pivotal moment in her career, though. At the beginning of her career, she painted in a very documentary, academic, illustrative style. While traveling in France, though, she began to experiment with Modernism and Post-Impressionism, and this painting is her true transition to a more modern style.

From the National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa.
