Description
Tanoo, Queen Charlotte Islands by Emily Carr 1913
Tanoo is an ambitious work that Carr produced after returning from her artistic training in France. Using bold shapes and animated brushwork, she captures the village of Tanoo from the beach to the totem poles to the dark forest and sky in the background.
Emily Carr was a west coast Canadian artist whose paintings were inspired by nature, her own spiritual beliefs and the indigenous cultures of the Pacific Northwest coast.
Carr was formally trained as a classical painter in San Francisco and as an Impressionist painter in France in 1910.
Working alone in Victoria, British Columbia her work received little attention until 1927. That year, her work was included with paintings from the famous Group of Seven artists in an exhibition held at the National Gallery of Canada.
The watermark in the lower right hand corner of the picture does not appear on the final print.
