About Traffic Jam Maud Lewis Canadian Folk Artist
This image of a couple in a convertible stopped by a cow in the middle of the road is unique among Maud Lewis’s work. It shows a contemporary scene, which is relatively rare amongst her paintings, but more importantly it gives an insight into her process. That Lewis drew from media sources for some of her work had been informed supposition until Jeffrey Spalding (1951–2019), a former director of the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia, noted the similarity of this piece to the cover of an issue of Maclean’s magazine. In the illustration by Oscar Cahén (1916–1956), a well-dressed couple in a convertible on a country road are stopped short by a large cow. About the Framed Prints
