As a boy, he decorated carriages in his father's carriage shop. The graphic scrollwork allowed him to hone design skills he would use his entire life. In Houses, Cobalt (c. 1931-1932), he used colour linocut to depict the town of Cobalt. This town had been a boom town after the discovery of silver, but was largely in decline by the 1920s when a numberof artists were attracted by its rugged landscape and abandoned mines.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn your coin, Royal Canadian Mint engravers reproduced Carmichael's memorable image of houses that rise up the rolling hillside covered in thick snow.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpecial features:\u003cbr\u003e ¥ As one of the original members of theGroup of Seven, Carmichaels's Houses, Cobalt (c. 1931-1932), is the third issue inthis must-have series of seven coins: three coins in 2012, four in 2013.\u003cbr\u003e ¥ 3RD coin in the series.\u003cbr\u003e ¥ GST\/HST exempt.\u003cbr\u003e ¥ Crafted in 1-ounce fine silver (99.99% pure).\u003cbr\u003e ¥ Limited to 7,000 coins worldwide.

Linocut printmaking-cutting a relief design into a linoleum surface that is then inkedand pressed onto the paper-was popular in the earlyyears of the 20th century, first for wallpaper printing, then for prints.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"J\u0026M Coins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40784863854667,"sku":"RCM.CA.SV.CN.002652 - G7.3","price":115.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0556\/2872\/6347\/files\/false_5b2ebf78-86ce-4df8-a7f9-96102b0344de.jpg?v=1717052718","url":"https:\/\/jandmcoins.com\/products\/canada-silver-2012-d20-houses-cobalt_-franklin-carmichael-group-of-seven-pf-1_009oz_-_9999-g7-3","provider":"J\u0026M Coin \u0026 Jewellery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
