A colour reproduction of the 22-year long Sampson-Matthews project, in which Canada''s best painters created new works that contributed to the war effort.

The idea that launched the Sampson - Matthews project was simple: get Canada''s best painters to contribute to the war effort by creating new works in conjunction with the Canadian National gallery. Launched at the start of the second world war, the project ended up running for 22 years, costing 10 million dollars and containing work from all of Canada''s great artists. Containing full colour reproduction of 112 silkscreens by eminent Canadian artists such as David Milne, Emily Carr and B.C.Binning.
