About Tom Thomson: North Star

Tom Thomson (1877–1917) is indisputably Canada’s preeminent modern painter, an artist whose unprecedented brilliance blazed the trail for the formation of the Group of Seven in the wake of his tragic death in 1917 at Canoe Lake in Algonquin Park. This exhibition offers a close look at Thomson’s legacy, focusing on the oil sketch, of which he is the supreme master.  

Organized and circulated by the McMichael Canadian Art Collection with the exceptional support of the National Gallery of Canada. With support from the Government of Canada. Sponsored by Heffel.
