Carr's keynote paintings, such as ''The Indian Church'' (1929), were not widely known in Canada at first. But her stature as one of Canada's most important artists continued to grow. Today, she is considered a cherished figure of Canadian arts and letters. Scholars and the public alike regard her as a Canadian national treasure and the ''Canadian Encyclopedia'' describes her as a Canadian icon. She has been designated a National Historic Person and had a Minor planet 5688 Kleewyck named after her anglicized native name. As one scholar in her 2014 book on Carr, put it, "we love her and she continues to speak to us".
Emily Carr lived most of her life in the city in which she was born and died, Victoria, British Columbia. Provided by Wikipedia
