About This Item
" Memoir by well-known Canadian artist Emily Carr describing her adventures as a landlord and a dog breeder in Victoria, British Columbia."-First published November 30, 1943- " Emily Carr (December 13, 1871 - March 2, 1945) was a Canadian artist and writer heavily inspired by the indigenous peoples of the Pacific Northwest Coast. One of the first painters in Canada to adopt a post-impressionist painting style, Carr did not receive widespread recognition for her work until later in her life. As she matured, the subject matter of her painting shifted from aboriginal themes to landscapes, and, in particular, forest scenes. As a writer, Carr was one of the earliest chroniclers of life in British Columbia. - The Canadian Encyclopedia describes her as a "Canadian icon"
