BIBLIOGRAPHIE
Arthur Lismer, A.Y. Jackson: Paintings 1902 - 1953, The Art Gallery of Toronto and the National Gallery of Canada, 1953, page 7


By the 1960s, A.Y. Jackson had left the legendary Studio Building in Toronto and was living in Manotick in a new studio that he had built. The pattern of his sketching trips had changed – though he continued to regularly visit Georgian Bay and the east shore of Lake Superior, he would now explore areas such as the Gatineau region and the Madawaska and Ottawa Valleys. In October of 1960 he was in the Madawaska Valley, where he discovered this rural church at Rosendal. Standing peacefully on its own in a field, the church has a quietly heroic quality, with its spire reaching to the sky. The brightness in the clouds above the trees gives the impression of a spiritual glow behind it. Jackson’s simple, fluid brush-strokes depict the landscape with a natural and rhythmic flow of its elements. As fellow Group of Seven member Arthur Lismer wrote of Jackson's oil sketches, “They are easy to look at, disarming at first in their simplicity...but they also invite participation in the subtleties of his execution, of his thoughtful composition, and in the definitive mood.”
