Edith Lake, Near Jasper | 30" x 40"

About the Artwork

Edith Lake, Near Jasper is a 30" x 40" oil painting by Rod Charlesworth created on canvas. This vibrant landscape captures the pristine beauty of Edith Lake in Jasper National Park, Alberta, set against the dramatic backdrop of Mount Edith Cavell. Both the lake and mountain are named after Edith Cavell, a British nurse who courageously helped hundreds of Allied soldiers escape German-occupied Belgium during the First World War before her execution in 1915.

Charlesworth's bold oil technique brings this Rocky Mountain wilderness to life through confident brushwork and rich colour. The composition draws the eye from the foreground's autumn foliage in brilliant yellows, oranges, and purples, across the crystal-clear lake waters, to the towering grey peaks beyond. Dead standing trees, or snags, punctuate the scene with vertical elements that contrast against the horizontal expanse of water and distant mountains. The dramatic sky shows swirling clouds in blues, purples, and warm yellows that suggest either dawn or dusk lighting. His thick paint application creates texture throughout the canvas, from the rocky shoreline to the dense evergreen forests that blanket the mountainsides.
