Literature
Ian M. Thom, “Casson's Cassons”, The McMichael Canadian Art Collection, Kleinburg, Ontario, page 18.
Including mention of Casson's work in the Madawaska Valley beginning in the 1940s, Thom points to the decade as “a fertile period for Casson. He sketched extensively in the Madawaska Valley, at Lake Kamaniskeg, and in the La Cloche region, using both oil and watercolour. Many of these works are splendid explorations of light and form.”
