Paintings of Nova Scotia

Over the centuries, many prominent Canadian landscape artists have painted Nova Scotia's rugged coast, interior lakes, and seaside villages. This is a collection of 100 of the most important of these masterpieces. Gathered from the impressive collection of the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia, these splendid full colour reproductions will appeal to all lovers of Nova Scotia. Dianne O'Neill's insightful text provides an informative interpretation of each painting, and uncovers the stories of many of the artists who came to Nova Scotia to paint. While the book concentrates on the landscapes of Nova Scotia and it's stunning coastline, Paintings of Nova Scotia also explores the magnificent visual diversity of the entire province. These stunning oil paintings and watercolours will capture the hearts and minds of visitors and resident Nova Scotians.
