Description

Brilliant and prolific, Tom Thomson (1877–1917) laid the foundation for the Group of Seven and has become an icon of Canadian culture. In 1909 Thomson, an engraver and graphic designer, found himself in the company of a group of talented and ambitious artists in Toronto. Haphazardly and frenetically absorbing the artistic zeitgeist, Thomson emerged as a gifted and innovative painter. The artist’s tragic death at Canoe Lake only five years into his promising career remains a national mystery.

Brillant et prolifique, Tom Thomson (1877-1917), qui a grandement influencé les artistes fondateurs du Groupe des Sept, est aujourd’hui une icône de la culture canadienne. En 1909, Thomson, graveur et graphiste, commence à fréquenter un groupe d’artistes talentueux et ambitieux à Toronto. Prenant part au paysage artistique de son temps de façon aléatoire et frénétique, Thomson se révèle être un peintre doué et novateur. Sa mort tragique au lac Canoe, seulement cinq ans après le début de sa carrière prometteuse, demeure un mystère national.
