Notes:
"The first definitive book on early Canadian women artists, Independent Spirit celebrates their artwork from the 18th century to the mid-20th century. The author singles out women artists who made significant contributions to the history of Canadian art and whose work has survived the test of time. Eighty works are presented in detail, each with a stunning color image and an incisive analysis and appreciation of the work. In-depth biographies of 36 artists offer additional insights into their work and feature additional color images. An invaluable reference to collector and scholar alike, Independent Spirit includes a comprehensive annotated list of more than 500 early Canadian women artists"--Information from publisher.
