If the words Canadian art just bring to mind the Group of Seven, it’s time to expand your horizons. This beautiful copper-accented tome covers stunning landscapes, Aboriginal art, portraits and the modernist movement in a visual history of our multi-ethnic culture. From Helen Galloway McNicoll’s romantic beach scenes to the pop art of Serge Lemoyne, there’s something for everyone.

Chatelaine celebrates, inspires, informs and empowers. We know that Canadian women contain multitudes, and we cover all of the issues—big and small—that matter to them, from climate change to caregiving, Canadian fashion and what to cook now.
