Toller Cranston (1949–2015, Hamilton, Ontario) was a modern Renaissance figure, renowned both as an Olympic medalist and as an internationally recognized painter. Acclaimed as the most influential figure skater of the 20th century, he revolutionized the sport with unprecedented artistry and freedom of movement. In parallel, his bold, imaginative paintings—developed over a lifetime alongside his skating—earned respect worldwide and affirmed his place in Canadian cultural history.
