Get this masterwork of fine art, intricately engraved then rendered in pure silver, on this meticulously detailed, low mintage proof beauty! The Group of Seven artists (sometimes known as the Algonquin School) were a group of significant Canadian landscape painters from 1920 to 1933. Tom Thomson (1877–1917), the seminal Canadian landscape painter, died before its official formation. Thomson had an important influence on the group. His painting “The Jack Pine” has become the single best-known Canadian work of art. Believing that a distinct Canadian artistic style could be developed through direct contact with nature, the Group of Seven became famous for its paintings inspired by the Canadian landscape, initiating the first major Canadian national art movement. This masterwork of fine art is expertly captured, meticulously engraved and intricately rendered in one full troy ounce of pure silver, down to the individual brush strokes on this proof-finish gem! With its extremely low mintage limit, and our extremely low price, we recommend securing yours today! Nova Scotia Fishing Village The obverse image of this fine silver, one troy ounce coin reproduces (in finely wrought, engraved detail) a vignette from Arthur Lismer’s 1930 painting Nova Scotia Fishing Village. In this detail, we see a robust example of Lismer’s style during a period in which he created some of his most interesting and enduring works. It was around this time, for instance, that Lismer evolved the pattern of dense composition, crude and almost lurid brushwork, and interplay of human and natural landscapes that would become characteristic of his work. The subject is a fishing wharf lined with huts, set against a village on a high bluff in the background. Lobster traps, floats, weights, buoys, barrels, bags, bottles, drying racks, docks, fisherman, shacks, and homes are piled one upon the other, the profuse ephemera of maritime life bursting from the expertly engraved reproduction in layers of mesmerizing detail. The density of this world of objects is emphasized in the dizzying interaction of shapes and the rough, swirling character of Lismer’s brush strokes, skillfully captured by Royal Canadian Mint engravers. Together with the slightly off-kilter vantage point of the painting, these details evoke the fairytale quality of sea lore. The detail from Lismer’s painting is surrounded by a ringed frame. For more information on the painting Nova Scotia Fishing Village, please see the article lower in this presentation, below the blue specifications box. Arthur Lismer 1885-1969 Arthur Lismer’s immense contribution to Canadian art is twofold: as a painter and as an influential and dedicated art educator. A man of tireless energy, his active career took him throughout Canada and around the world. He saw art as a universal form of expression, profoundly rewarding for all who took the time to enjoy it. Born in Sheffield, England, and apprenticed at thirteen to a photo-engraving firm, Lismer spent the next seven years producing black and white art for the local newspaper while studying at the Sheffield School of Art. Struggling as a commercial artist, he soon headed to Canada where he joined the design house of Grip Ltd. in 1911 where he met artists Frank Johnston, J.E.H. MacDonald and Tom Thomson. He was one of four employees who later formed the Group of Seven to leave work for Rous and Mann printing house in 1912. Lismer first visited the Georgian Bay area in 1913 when he was offered the use of a cottage owned by Lawren Harris’s friend Dr. James McCallum. It was an initiation to a landscape favored by the artist for the rest of his life. The following year Lismer journeyed for the first time to Algonquin Park, where he and Thomson sketched together. Lismer felt that this was turning point in his life. Lismer’s impressionistic style of these earlier years seemed inappropriate for the rugged landscape, and throughout the 1910s, he developed a technique of stronger color and compositional design. During his career Lismer lectured across Canada and in New York, South Africa, and the South Pacific. Over the years he touched thousands, no doubt altering their outlooks forever. He believed passionately that the pursuit of art and education made life richer with the ability to “see further and deeper than others into the meaning and beauty of life”.

It was around this time, for instance, that Lismer evolved the pattern of dense composition, crude and almost lurid brushwork, and interplay of human and natural landscapes that would become characteristic of his work. In this painting, we see a robust example of Lismer’s style in this era. Lobster traps, floats, weights, buoys, barrels, bags, drying racks, docks, fisherman, shacks, homes—the profuse ephemera of maritime life are piled one upon the other, bursting from the canvas in layers of mesmerizing detail.

Together with the slightly off-kilter vantage point of the painting, these details evoke the fairytale quality of sea lore. The Artist: Arthur Lismer Born in Sheffield, England on June 27, 1885, Arthur Lismer began his artistic career as an apprentice photoengraver in his home town and from 1898 he attended the Sheffield School of Art on a scholarship. In 1906, he traveled to Antwerp to study at Belgium’s Academie Royale des Beaux-Arts. Following his time in Antwerp, Lismer briefly returned to Sheffield to work in commercial art before emigrating to Toronto early in 1911. He was hired at the famous Grip Limited commercial art firm—an early career point for so many members of the Group of Seven. Lismer’s primary artistic subject in the pre-war years was northern Ontario’s rocky and tumultuous landscape—a novel terrain for the Englishman. As the years progressed, however, his dedication to teaching grew to be as strong as his passion for painting landscapes. Beginning in Halifax in 1916, as principal of the Victoria School of Art and Design (now the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design), Lismer’s career in art education would take him around the world, founding a number of important and innovative children’s art programs. In 1917, Lismer witnessed the infamous Halifax Explosion. The accidental collision of a munitions-loaded French ship and a Norwegian ship killed two thousand and injured many thousands more. Lismer published drawings of the event and was commissioned by the Canadian War Records to document the return of troops to Halifax in 1918. A year later, Lismer relocated to Toronto once again and became vice-principal of the Ontario College of Art. With fellow Group of Seven members in the 1920s, Lismer painted landscapes of northern Ontario and drew numerous caricatures of his colleagues. In the late 1920s, he traveled to western Canada and beginning in the 1930s, he painted throughout the Atlantic provinces. In 1940, he moved to Montreal, where he taught at the Art Association of Montreal (now the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts) into the late 1960s. Lismer died in Montreal on March 23, 1969.
