Artist Bio
Henry J. Phair was a Canadian artist who was active in the 19th century. He specialized in painting detailed watercolor landscapes of his home country, Canada. Often times his depictions involved a body of water, such as the South West Miramichi River in New Brunswick, with canoes gliding over the top.
