John Little, R.C.A.
Tom Thomson (1877-1917)
Annual Loan Exhibition
November 5 - 19, 2022
Opulent October (1915-1916)
Continuing in a long-standing and unique tradition of hosting annual non-selling educational shows, Galerie Eric Klinkhoff is proud to present an exhibition featuring important works by Tom Thomson. When Tom Thomson died mysteriously in 1917 he left behind a trove of a mere forty large canvases and a few hundred sketches that have inspired a host of painters - and the interest, even the love, of many in the nation. The Tom Thomson exhibition at the Galerie Eric Klinkhoff features many of the artist's finest works, the visual evidence that the admiration of Canadians is richly deserved.
Paintings have been lent by Canadian private and corporate collectors. It is their generous collaboration that has made this exhibition possible.
Galerie Eric Klinkhoff will be open to the public on an appointment-only basis,
Monday to Saturday, from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm.

Welcome to Galerie Eric Klinkhoff
Eric Klinkhoff has opened Galerie Eric Klinkhoff in an iconic space - the former Galerie Walter Klinkhoff, founded by his father, Walter Klinkhoff, in 1950. Following in his father's footsteps, Eric Klinkhoff, well-known and highly respected art dealer, figures as one of the most-experienced experts in the field of Canadian art. Galerie Eric Klinkhoff specializes in the purchase, sale, and appraisal of important Canadian art by the 19th and early 20th century artists, the Canadian Impressionists, Tom Thomson and the Group of Seven, contemporaries of the Group of Seven and independents, members of the Beaver Hall Hill Group, the Canadian Group of Painters, the Contemporary Arts Society, Les Automatistes, Primitive Quebec Artists, and other important artists of the post-War period.
Appointed by the artist, Eric Klinkhoff is John Little's exclusive representative.
