Framed
views of this beautiful mountain landscape painting
of the Scimitar Glacier (located in Coastal British
Columbia) in the Summertime featuring flowing glacial
ice and Donald's stylized mountainsides between Mt.
Tiedmann and Mt. Waddington.
Donald's
bold use of blue colours accurately depicts this striking
mountain scene. Dr. DM Flather was known to have had
a photographic memory and was able to both accurately
recall and accurately depict colours from the many beautiful
scenes in nature that he visited on his painting and
sketching trips.
On the
backside of this painting Donald has written:
CO#16
RADIANT GLACIER
SCIMITAR GLACIER
and along the top "MT. TIEDMANN 12,800 ft. and
MT. WADDINGTON 13,200 ft."
This
painting comes from Donald's highly collectible and
sought after "Coastal BC Paintings Series"
that Donald worked on from the 1930's to 1978.
