Photo: La Fresque Des Quebecois Wall Mural Quebec City
Recounting more than 400 years of history, La Fresque des Quebecois is the work of 12 artists from both Canada and France. The wall mural was unveiled on October 17, 1999 in the old historic district of Quebec City.
A 420 square metre mural situated on the wall of house Soumande known as La Fresque Des Quebecois features many historic characters important to the development of the capital city of Quebec. Jacques Cartier, Samuel de Champlain, Francois-Xavier Garneau, and Jean Talon are just to name a few.
As well as depicting important historical characters who've helped shape the city of Quebec, it also features artists and writers. The mural has also capitalized on Quebec's architecture and geography by featuring the fortifications and stairs, plus each of the seasons and how they change over the course of time.
