About the piece
Painted in 1918 during A. Y. Jackson's tenure as an official war artist, this oil study captures a 'crassier' or slag heap in a landscape scarred by the First World War. Jackson, a future founding member of the Group of Seven, utilizes a moody palette and rhythmic brushwork to find a somber beauty in the industrial and military aftermath of the era.
