Looking out of the courtyard of the Château Saint-Louis in 1830, Québec City
Damaged during the Conquest, Château Saint-Louis was restored by the British between 1765 and 1768. With newly added secondary buildings, it became the seat of power. This superb watercolour by James Pattison Cockburn depicts the view looking from the Château out to the city. You are now enjoying the view that the era’s governor saw every day!
