Maud Lewis A World Without Shadows

Set against a background of her paintings and the Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, landscapes they depict, this short documentary is a portrait of the life and work of one of Canada's foremost primitive painters, Maud Lewis. Emerging from her youth crippled with arthritis, Lewis escaped into her painting at the age of 30. She had never seen a work of art and had never attended an art class but her paintings captured the simple strength, beauty and happiness of the world she saw - a world without shadows. • Directed by Diane Beaudry - 1976 | 10 min • About the NFB • The National Film Board of Canada produces and distributes documentary films, animation, web documentaries and fiction.
