About the piece

Created in 1917 by Canadian artist A.Y. Jackson, this oil study depicts Vimy Ridge from the Souchez Valley. The work showcases Jackson’s signature post-impressionistic style, with a harmonious palette of olive greens, warm ochres, and muted blues applied in thick, rhythmic strokes on a wooden panel.
