About the piece
Painted in 1918 by Gerald Moira, this luminous oil work depicts members of the Canadian Forestry Corps felling and sawing logs in Windsor Park. The scene masterfully balances the industrious grit of the workers in their blue overalls with a serene, sun-drenched landscape and the distant, monumental towers of Windsor Castle, offering a unique intersection of military history and pastoral landscape painting.
