Date: 1999

Notes: Executed in green ink on a white background, this bookplate depicts a peaceful scene of nature redolent of British Columbia. In the foreground is an evergreen tree behind which birds soar in the distance over mountains. Below the mountains is a forest that frames a lake. Overlooking the lake is a cabin emitting smoke from its roof, while in the lake's center is a fishing boat with two occupants. The text is placed beneath this scene and is framed in each of its four corners by an open book and scroll at the top, and closed books at the bottom. ; Bookplate Type : Pictorial ; Bookplate Function : OwnershipWallace and Ethel Wilson were both well-known and respected residents of Vancouver, British Columbia. Wallace's work with the Canadian Medical Association and World Health Organization earned him much recognition, while Ethel's writing made her a significant literary figure, earning her a Canadian Council medal for her contribution to Canadian Literature. Her works include Hetty Dorval, The Innocent Traveller, Swamp Angel, and Love and Salt Water. Mrs. Wilson's papers are currently held by UBC's Rare Books and Special Collections in the Ethel Wilson fonds. ; Personal
