Lot Report

Literature:

Ramsay Cook, Kurelek Country: The Art of William Kurelek, Toronto, 1999, page 14.

Note:

Cook writes: “There is no end to the ways in which Kurelek could present the ever changing prairie sky and the equally numerous activities of the people who lived under it.” Prairie Homestead depicts in exceptional detail a subject which the artist knew so intimately as a child.
