Group of Seven Calendar 2004 (Calendar)

At an important time in Canada's artistic and social history, the Group of Seven applied their creativity and passion to a visual celebration of Canada as a wild and eminently beautiful land. With their skill and talent, these artists shaped a country's long romance with its wilderness and consequently its sense of identity. Their distinct artistry captivated us then and continues to captivate us now. Whether a river washed in golden autumn sun, an ice-chilled lake, or a forest sleeping under a winter's snow, these 12 masterpieces from galleries across Canada reflect a country that has transcended all debate about national identity. It is Canada's continued passion for the land and its natural beauty that grants modern relevance to the work of these exceptional artists.
