This one, The Young Gleaner, hangs in the Art Gallery of Ontario. It's so full of life. The light coming through the girls hat is astounding. I could stand and look at it for hours.
Here are a few more beautiful Peel's to peek at. Imagine what he would have painted had he lived past 32!
*Dreamy sigh*
The paintings are stunning!!! So said that he died so young.

I've never seen his work before, I love it...Especially the top picture of the little girl. The light, shadows and hues are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteAHH! Peel! Brings me back to my Canadian Art History course! Thanks for the trip down memory lane. :)
