Montreal River, Algoma - Scenic landscape with the cascading river and colorful autumn woods on the mountainside.

Johnston made more painting trips to Algoma in the late 1910s early 1920s with other members of the Group of Seven, making sketches on the spot.

Frank (Francis) Hans Johnston was one of the founding members of the Group of Seven, an influential art movement of Canadian landscape painters from 1920-33.

His landscapes of the Canadian wilderness are exceptionally atmospheric and decorative, he's among the most productive and successful artists of his generation.
