In this detail, we see a robust example of Lismer's style during a period in which he created some of his most interesting and enduring works. It was around this time, for instance, that Lismer evolved the pattern of dense composition, crude and almost lurid brushwork, and interplay of human and natural landscapes that would become characteristic of his work. The subject is a fishing wharf lined with huts, set against a village on a high bluff in the background. Lobster traps, floats, weights, buoys, barrels, bags, bottles, drying racks, docks, fisherman, shacks, and homes are piled one upon the other, the profuse ephemera of maritime life bursting from the expertly engraved reproduction in layers of mesmerizing detail. The density of this world of objects is emphasized in the dizzying interaction of shapes and the rough, swirling character of Lismer's brushstrokes, skillfully captured by Royal Canadian Mint engravers. Together with the slightly off-kilter vantage point of the painting, these details evoke the fairytale quality of sea lore. The detail is framed by a polished border with the words \"ARTHUR LISMER\" and \"CANADA,\" the year \"2012,\" and the face value \"20 DOLLARS.\" The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFace Value:\u003cbr\u003eMintage:\u003cbr\u003eComposition:\u003cbr\u003eWeight (g):\u003cbr\u003eDiameter (mm):\u003cbr\u003eEdge:\u003cbr\u003eFinish:\u003cbr\u003eCertificate:\u003cbr\u003eArtist:\u003cbr\u003e117951\u003cbr\u003e6-23932-03870-7\u003cbr\u003e20 dollars\u003cbr\u003e7,000 (Shared mintage with subscription)\u003cbr\u003e99.99% pure silver\u003cbr\u003e31.39\u003cbr\u003e38\u003cbr\u003eSerrated\u003cbr\u003eProof\u003cbr\u003eSerialized\u003cbr\u003eRCM engravers reproduced the Nova Scotia Fishing Village by Arthur Lismer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"J\u0026M Coins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40784863559755,"sku":"RCM.CA.SV.CN.002650 - G7.2","price":115.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0556\/2872\/6347\/files\/false_a71e798f-5d6d-4b21-b8bb-9dc46c11d5fd.jpg?v=1717052709","url":"https:\/\/jandmcoins.com\/products\/canada-silver-2012-d20-fishing-village_-arthur-lismer-group-of-seven-pf-1_009oz_-_9999-g7-2","provider":"J\u0026M Coin \u0026 Jewellery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
