Rocky mountain oils
in gingerbread galleries
footprints in the snow
Bylot Island by Lawren Harris
The Break-up, Mount Tremblant by Edwin Headley Holgate
In the tony Yorkville section of Toronto where I stayed, I discovered the Loch gallery. These paintings were among other wintry landscapes by Canadian artists. The images echoed the enormous distance I had just crossed by train. They expressed something essential about the many beautiful lands known as Canada.
People are scarce and the land is vast, monumental, and portentous.
