 Carnations in a Glass Vase

Mary Wrinch

1893

Mary Evelyn Wrinch (1877–1969), was a Canadian artist who created miniature paintings, colour block prints and oil paintings, sometimes inspired by the Northern Ontario landscape. She pioneered the 'Canadian style', painting landscapes with bold colours of the Algoma, Muskoka and Lake Superior regions, in situ. In her miniature paintings on ivory, she depicted her sitters with freshness and vitality. Her colour block prints are virtuoso examples of the medium.
