Stunning drawing of Ottawa’s parliament buildings as seen from across the Ottawa River. The details of the Library of Parliament and the monument located just west of Centre Block are quite lovely. The pencil text on the back of the drawing reads: “Original pen sketch of Parliament Hill from a rock on the Hull side of river.”
The drawing is in excellent condition. Some foxing is visible on the backing board.
