Tom Thomson 2019 celebrates the work of one of Canada's best-loved artists with art-quality reproductions. Born in 1877, Tom Thomson grew up in Ontario near the shores of Georgian Bay. In 1912, he made the first of many trips to Algonquin Park, the setting of his great paintings and the place where he died in a tragic canoe accident five years later.
