David Milne has long been recognized as one of Canada’s most original and influential artists.  Born in Bruce County, Ontario in 1882, he spent the early years of his artistic career in New York, where he was one of two Canadians represented in the famous Armory Show of 1913.  He returned to Canada in 1929, eventually settling near Bancroft, where he died in 1953.

Milne’s strong personal style incorporated aspects of the work of American and French impressionists, Whistler, Cézanne and the Fauves.  Whether observing the rugged northern landscape or capturing the ephemeral beauty of the female figure casually observed, Milne's paintings express the spontaneity, freshness and clarity of vision that are hallmarks of his oeuvre.

David Milne’s paintings hang in many museums and public art galleries including the National Gallery of Canada, Art Gallery of Nova Scotia, and Fine Arts Museum of San Francisco.
