Ernest Lawson fue un pintor canadiense-estadounidense que expuso su obra en el Canadian Art Club y fue miembro del grupo estadounidense The Eight, artistas que formaron una asociación flexible en 1908 para protestar por el estrechez del gusto y las políticas de exposición restrictivas de la conservadora y poderosa Academia Nacional de Diseño. Aunque Lawson fue principalmente un pintor de paisajes, también pintó una pequeña cantidad de escenas urbanas realistas. Su estilo de pintura está fuertemente influenciado por el arte de John Henry Twachtman, J. Alden Weir y Alfred Sisley. Aunque se le considera un impresionista canadiense-estadounidense, Lawson cae estilísticamente entre el impresionismo y el realismo.
