This detailed reference work lists, by artists, all works exhibited by the Royal Canadian Academy in its first 100 years. These include works in all media shown in the annual exhibitions, special exhibits organized by the Academy, fairs and world expositions to which the Academy officially contributed, and travelling exhibitions organized by the National Gallery of Canada.

The more than 22,000 entries embrace work in the fields of painting, sculptue, architecture, design, photography, and film, executed by approximately 3,000 artists.

Evelyn McMann's compilation includes concise biographical data on each artist, the artist's residence at the time the work was exhibited, the title and nature of each piece, and its sale price if known. A total of 134 exhibitions are listed with date, place, and number of works exhibited.

This book draws on many previously unpublished sources, presents an historic view of Canadian art, and greatly enhances a precise knowledge of canadian artists' contributions to our heritage. It is an invaluable reference for Canaidan collectors, art historians, dealers, and gallery staff.
