My teaching career of 30 years took me into three levels of the Ontario school system. I taught high school in Dundalk, Burlington, Tweed, and Collingwood...

223 pages including index. Presents the four stages in the development of western art, each with its own particular characteristics. Despite these evolutionary differences, however, an underlying common quality is unmistakable - the overwhelming influence of the environment. Distance, isolation, clarity, beauty, harshness - again and again these are the forces that control interpretation. And foremost of all the determining factors stand the two elemental absolutes - the mountains and the sky. Book in excellent clean unmarked condition with very faint wear to maroon cloth boards. Numerous closed tears and sticker scar to price-clipped dust jacket. Works displayed in colour, and black and white. All works belong to the Glenbow-Alberta Institute of Calgary, Alberta. Book
