Provenance:

Private Collection, Nelson, British Columbia (a gift from the artist and thence by descent)

Note:

By the mid-1930s Pegi Nicol’s kaleidoscope vision begins to emerge, a style unique to her and for which there is no Canadian equivalent. Distorting compositions for emotional ends, Nicol is nonetheless disciplined in her use of space.
