Indian War Canoe is a 1912 oil by Emily Carr, depicting Canoe, held at Montreal Museum of Fine Arts.
This painting shows a large, colorful canoe on a beach. The canoe has a carved frog head on the front and a white cloth hanging from the top. There are trees, buildings, and people in the background. The colors are bright and bold, with lots of greens, blues, and yellows. The canoe is the main focus of the painting, and it's very detailed. You can see the texture of the wood and the carvings on the frog head. The background is more blurry, but you can still make out the shapes of the trees and buildings.
