Tom Thomson (1877–1917) looms large in Canadian arthistory. He is celebrated as one of Canada's most influential and popular artists of the early 20th century. Nature was his constant muse, and Thomson infused his art with a vibrant spirit and dynamism. He encouraged other fellow artists to join him in capturing the beauty of Canada's rugged landscape on canvas—a profound source of inspiration that ultimately led to the formation of the famed Group of Seven.
Through distinctive brush strokes and bold colours, the oil paintings of Canadian artist Tom Thomson transformedhow Canada's northern landscape was perceivedat home and abroad. The Royal Canadian Mint celebrates one of Canada's most influential artists of the early twentieth century by recreating detailsfrom this famous painting Spring Ice (1916).
