Description
Near the Ramparts of Quebec we have this scene. The Ramparts of Quebec City are the only remaining fortified city walls in North America north of Mexico. The British began refortifying the existing walls, after they took Quebec City from the French in the Battle of the Plains of Abraham in 1759.
The wall, which runs on the eastern extremity on the Promontory of Quebec, surrounds most of Old Quebec, which was declared a World Heritage site by UNESCO in 1985. The fortifications were designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 1948.
This digitally altered artwork is derived from a photograph taken Sept 18, 2007 in Quebec City, Quebec during our exploratory tour of New England, and part of the east coast of the USA and Canada on the Norwegian Dawn out of New York City.
Final processing done with Smart Photo Editor and Photoshop.
