Abstract
This collection offers a unique contribution to the scholarship of Indian art in that it documents the effects of the transition period (roughly 1880-1940) on the art of an Indian people--in this case, the Blackfeet. In 1952 the collection was divided; half of it was given to the Museum of the Plains Indian, and the other half was retained by the Northwest Area Foundation. This catalogue that reunites the collection contains four essays, and illustrates more than 400 objects, most of which are Blackfeet. (from Abe Books)

Abstract
Pertains to the work of Arthur Lismer, an English Canadian painter and member of the Group of Seven. While Lismer’s paintings were immensely popular, author Ian Thom explores the impact of his lesser known works, Lismer’s cartoons. He examines the connection between Lismer’s quick sketches, and the ways in which they invite viewers into Lismer’s personal life. In this publication, Thom explores the humor, story and detail in Lismer’s fine drawings and cartoons.
