"Waning Winter" by Frank Johnston offers a poignant depiction of the transition from winter to spring. Johnston, a prominent member of the Group of Seven, was celebrated for his ability to capture the essence of the Canadian landscape.

In this painting, Johnston portrays the late stages of winter, as the season begins to fade away and give way to the impending arrival of spring. The landscape features remnants of snow clinging to the ground, while hints of greenery and thawing patches of earth emerge beneath the melting snow. The soft, muted colors and gentle brushwork evoke a sense of tranquility and anticipation as nature prepares for the change of seasons.

Johnston's keen observation and deep connection to the Canadian landscape are evident in "Waning Winter." Through his expressive use of color and texture, he captures the fleeting beauty and quiet introspection of this transitional period.

Through "Waning Winter," viewers are invited to contemplate the delicate balance between seasons and the enduring resilience of nature as interpreted by one of Canada's most esteemed artists, Frank Johnston.
