In her 2002 book, Joan Murray comments often on J.E.H. Macdonald's passionate interest in gardens and flowers and the influence of one of his most celebrated paintings, The Tangled Garden. She wrote: "This small painting of hyacinths is a reminder of MacDonald's place in the history of floral painting in Canada: he affirmed the vitality of the tradition with elan. Note the way MacDonald often chooses a viewpoint looking up towards the flowers so that they fill the top of the picture."

Please note: a copy of the book Flowers: J.E.H. MacDonald, Tom Thomson and the Group of Seven accompanies this lot.
