Soon after joining the Group of Seven in 1926, A.J. Casson defined his unique identity in the Group with his depictions of Ontario’s villages and rural countryside. Casson considered Quebec to be A.Y. Jackson’s territory, although Jackson had tried to persuade him to paint there in the 1920s. In 1966 Jackson finally convinced Casson to accompany him on a sketching trip to the town of Grenville in Quebec, guiding him to choice painting places in the area. Casson returned to Grenville every year until 1972. In Driving Shed - Grenville, Que., Casson exhibits the same ability to crystallize the mood of a singular moment and place that he was so well known for in his Ontario scenes. The weathered driving shed exudes the warmth of human presence in a rural landscape glowing with fall colours, while mist effects rise through the background, adding an intriguing atmospheric element to this peaceful, radiant scene.
