The combination of classic NFB filmmaking and the glorious beauty of Tom Thomson’s sublime paintings is almost more than my old Canadian heart can bear. Wonderful. 🍁
Pretty sure that we were shown this film in high school art class way back when. Nothing captures the Canadian north quite like the group of seven. Interesting to think that this film was produced during WW2. I wonder if it was used to bolster the troops morale and bring about a sense of national pride. Thompson is the quintessential Canadian artist. More old NFB please.

Can't wait to visit Ontario someday and do some painting
I love this channel with all my heart 🤗
