Attributed to Frank (Franz) Johnston, no coa, private collection, medium: oil, measurements: 22"HX28"W framed, good condition, shows age Biography:Francis Hans Johnston was a member of the Group of Seven. In 1916, encouraged by Dr. James MacCallum, he travelled to Hearst, Ontario, to paint. From 1918 on, he joined Lawren Harris and J.E.H. MacDonald on their journeys to Algoma. His paintings from those years express a strong decorative interpretation of the landscape, but he often employed fast-drying tempera rather than oil paint.Johnston's rate of production was such that in the 1919 Algoma show at the Art Gallery of Toronto he contributed sixty works - more than any other artist.
