Georgian Canada: Conflict and Culture, 1745-1820

Canada: The Royal Ontario Museum, 1984. Large Softcover. Good. 10x9x0. Edges and endpapers foxed. 1984 Large Softcover. xiv, 225 pp. "Composed of treasures assembled from more than fifty lenders, including Her Majesty The Queen, and from our own collections, it is the most complex exhibition the Museum has yet organized. In exploring the panorama of Canada's formative decades, when conflict between Great Britain and the nascent United States persisted even after the peace was signed, the exhibition highlights the many interconnected events that led to the creation of a new country. With paintings by the foremost artists of the time and elegant examples of 18th-century British and colonial craftsmanship, the exhibition projects an image of the spirit and tenor of the age."--Foreword
