Frank Johnston didn't die in 1922 as this article states; he left the group in 1921 to become principal at an art school and to pursue commercial art. He died in 1949.

Hey all. Just a note: quite a lot of the group's style was inspired also by Scandinavian landscape artists. Some members even worked to bring this kind of work to the CNE's art exhibitions way back. I don't have any citations to help out, but all of this can be accessed by looking through CNE art exhibition programs in the CNE archives in Toronto. As well, the Scandinavian connection is noted in a few art history books on the group. JB —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 216.209.7.172 (talk • contribs) 02:23, 9 April 2006 (UTC)
