About this work

A.Y. Jackson, an employee of Sampson-Matthews, instigated the wartime silkscreen art program and was its biggest contributor, providing 12 works throughout the run of the program. In many of these works, the presence of man is evident but shown in small scale compared to the dominance of nature. “Laurentian Farm” (1947-1953) is a cold but bright winter scene of a Quebec homestead as a sled is pulled by a draught horse through deep snow.
