Baldissera, Lisa, 1966- (author.). Carr, Emily, 1871-1945 Paintings. Selections. (Added Author).

Summary:

"Emily Carr (1871-1945) is one of Canada's most beloved artists. An independent woman and a Westerner who gained prominence at a time when female painters were not recognized internationally, her life and work reflect a profound commitment to the land she knew and loved. Carr's sensitive evocations reveal an artist grappling with spiritual questions inspired by the Canadian sea, land, and people. Although more than half a century has passed since her death, any artist who engages with the West Coast must contend with her legacy. Her paintings continue to inspire generations of artists."-- Amazon.
