This book highlights a century of landscape art inspired by the
Mount Assiniboine area of the Canadian Rockies from 1899 to 2006.
The book includes a preface by Robert Sandford and an introduction
discussing the history of exploration of the region, early ascents
of Mount Assiniboine, the development of tourism, and the
significant art this majestic peak has inspired. Illustrations in
the introduction include four black-and-white archival photos,
along with five colour reproductions of Mary Vaux Walcott's
stunning watercolours of wildflowers sketched in the area. The main
text presents 42 colour plates illustrating a wide variety of
styles and media from 23 artists including A P Coleman, Carl
Rungius, James Simpson, Belmore Browne, Barbara and A C Leighton,
Catharine and Peter Whyte, W J Phillips and A Y Jackson.Of these,
only seven have been previously published. The colour plates are
organised into three sections: approaching Assiniboine from the
northwest; east of Assiniboine; and Mount Assiniboine itself. Each
section is introduced with a black-and-white archival photograph
and a quotation. The book concludes with a list of artists,
endnotes, a full bibliography and an index.
