March Storm, Georgian Bay — Fine Art

March Storm, Georgian Bay - 1920 shows a grey lake under a lead sky with a darker shoreline broken by a few pale strokes. The water runs across the lower half while the upper part stays open and pale. A.Y. Jackson painted this scene in the tonalist style. The fine art print keeps the quiet tones of the water and sky.

The white frame gives the print a clear edge on the wall. White keeps the grey tones soft and leaves the paper without shine. This works for the tonalist look.

Hang it in a reading corner beside a lamp. You see the broad grey band of water first, then the thin pale marks along the shore.
