Alfred C. Patstone

Alfred Cyril Patstone (1908 – 10 December 1999) was a Canadian romantic realist painter who captured Canada's disappearing rural charm with his oil paintings of vanishing barns, old houses, western grain elevators and much more. He was deeply influenced by the work of the American artist Andrew Wyeth who inspired him to capture the countryside in the realist fashion. He was most widely known for his works featuring Canadian barns, which have been acquired by galleries and private collections in Europe, the United States, and from coast to coast in Canada.
