"The Group of Seven means liberation: the liberation
to be Canadian; the liberation for us to simply
accept ourselves. Inspired by the distant impressionists and
post-impressionists of Europe, these artists
found the key which was so badly needed to free
the Canadian eye, to free us all to see the Canadian
landscape as it is and not as a reflection of our
other heritages. The Group of Seven taught us how to love this wild,
rugged beauty which we call Canada." -- Astrid Terras
