PROVENANCE
Private Collection, Quebec
This atmospheric oil sketch, painted with luscious pastel tones, was likely painted at Balm Beach on Georgian Bay, where Franz Johnston and his family moved in 1930. He opened an art school there and had a house with a large studio which he called Tondakea, which in Ojibway means “where the world vanishes”. Georgian Bay was an idyllic place that exerted a magnetic attraction for the Group of Seven.
