Treasures of the National Gallery of Canada
David Franklin
From its founding in 1880 the National Gallery of Canada has grown to become the largest visual arts museum in
the country. The Gallery's outstanding holdings of Canadian art are the direct result of its unwavering commitment to
the acquisition of works by living Canadian artists. The mandate of the National Gallery of Canada clearly states that "the collections are its principal assets." This showcase of some of the pre-eminent objects in our collection bears witness to our passionate belief in these words.
