In 1957, Fred McGuinness attended a six-week workshop at the Banff School of Advanced Management. He went on behalf of Southam News Company while he was working with the Medicine Hat News. At the end of the program, the class purchased a gift for the school. McGuinness was charged with obtaining a painting to present on behalf of the class. McGuinness reminisces in his short story "A.Y. Jackson" (Letters from Section 17, Winnipeg: Great Plains Press, 1999) about cold-calling the painter, inquiring if the artist had any paintings to sell. After learning that McGuinness had $800 to contribute towards a painting, A.Y. Jackson agreed to produce a fresh painting which he would ship out to the school by train.
Scope and Content
Photograph shows A.Y. Jackson's painting "Georgian Bay, October" that Fred McGuinness commissioned in 1957. The painting is described as being a "landscape with autumn colours of purple, red, and yellow."
