Harris paints soft shapes with even softer colours that coordinate so well
that he creates visual harmony throughout the piece. The result of this
technique is a very serene painting that looks upon subject with fondness.
His ample use of texture also contributes to the almost dream-like
atmosphere of the piece. A house in Toronto, he steps outside of the
usual landscape theme for the Group of Seven and creates a calming
depiction of city life.
