Tom Thomson Format:Hardcover  9781773103204  $60 Captured in the "slow seconds"Tom Thomson is the undisputed master of the oil sketch. A towering figure in the history of Canadian art after just five years of professional practise, he stunned audiences with his fresh and avant garde experimentation, evoking his experience of the Ontario landscape in dozens of dazzling miniature masterworks. Thomsons death in 1917 triggered the formation of the Group of Seven and the ascendancy of landscape painting as a national preoccupation.
