JACK HAMILTON BUSH, O.S.A., A.R.C.A.ROADWAY IN WINTERoil on board 8.75 ins x 10.75 ins; 22.2 cms x 27.3 cms Provenance:Private Collection, Nova Scotia (by descent through the family of the artist)Literature:Dennis Reid, "Jack Bush: The Development of a Canadian Painter," in Jack Bush, McClelland and Stewart, Toronto, 1984.Note:Dennis Reid writing about another early work of Bush's emphasizes the role that the Group of Seven had on the younger artist. He could be describing this work when he writes that it has "roughly blocked-in colour areas, with the broad brushwork describing only major forms. It is tied to the work of Jackson, Lawren Harris, and MacDonald, in particular, in that it displays the saturated colour often used by those painters during the 20s and avoid anecdotal detail, pursuing the dominant mood of the place that is its subject."
