Description
Valley area centre with mountains on either side, rocks in foreground right, four trees on mountain side right, one large tree on same plane as other trees left, mountains from a V in distance, valley continues at the base of the V.“Sketching Lake Louise was de rigour for artists in Canada in the first decades of the twentieth century.

The resulting “starburst” composition is contained by uncompromisingly vertical trees on either side.” -- “Charles John Collings, 1848-1931” Catalogue Raisonne by Linda Heath

Description
Landscape with a tree in the forground left, a spindly branched tree, and a similar shaped one 1/3 the size opposite it to the right. - there is a pond of lake behind these across the center of the frame, and gentle sloping green land further back. - blue sky on the upper 1/3 of the frame with wisps of yellowing/grey clouds across.“A pleasant painting full of tender greens and spring blossoms, this view of an apple orchard, possibly in the Okanagan area, exhibits a moderate impasto effect. Darkest tones have been restricted to a few branches and detail in a town across the lake, suggesting the late date although Collings brushstrokes do not follow the contours of his images.” -- “Charles John Collings, 1848-1931” Catalogue Raisonne by Linda Heath
