Tom ThomsonTom Thomson lived from 1877-1917. He died in 1917, on Canoe Lake. His death occurred under "suspicious" circumstances. Although he died before the Group formally formed, he is considered a member of the Group of Seven. |
James Edward Hervey (J.E.H.) MacDonaldMacDonald was born in Durham, England and moved to Canada at the age of fourteen. MacDonald believed that art should express the "mood and character and spirit of the country". He trained as an artist in Hamilton and Toronto, pursuing a career in commercial art. In 1895 he joined the Grip Engraving Company in Toronto painted with Tom Thomson, Frank Carmichael, Arthur Lismer and Fred Varley, on weekends later become Canada's famous Group of Seven. |

A. J. CassonAlfred Joseph Casson was born in Toronto on May 17, 1898. He was a young commercial artist, assistant to Frank Carmichael, when the Group of Seven was finally formed. In 1926 the Group of Seven consisted of only six, because of the withdrawal of Frank Johnston. Casson continued to work as a commercial artist until the age of sixty, when he retired as Vice President and Art Director of Samson-Mathews in Toronto. Casson's subjects differ from those of the rest of the group, because he never shown much interest in the North Woods landscape of which the others did. His favorite subjects were rural scenes of Southern Ontario |

Lawren HarrisLawren Harris was born on October 23, 1885, in Brantford, Ontario. He took up painting at an early age and studied in Germany from 1904 to 1907. He worked briefly with Norman Duncan. Harris is also the only member of the Group who kept pushing his painting, never resting with one style or one subject matter. Harris continued to grow and change as a painter, moving to art deco and pure abstraction. His affection for Scandinavian landscape painting was one of the key factors in the formulation of the Group of Seven's approach to the Ontario woods, which Harris himself painted. Harris led the way to painting the Arctic, the Rocky Mountains, Gaspe and other parts of Canada. |
