In summer, the square fills with life, its stone buildings glowing warm in the afternoon light, the bust of Louis XIV presiding over the scene as visitors wander between the heritage facades and open-air terraces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the far end of the square, Notre-Dame-des-Victoires rises with quiet authority, one of the oldest stone churches in North America, its modest facade belying the centuries of history contained within its walls. Built in 1688, the church has survived sieges, bombardments, and the passage of time, and remains one of the most visited landmarks in Quebec City. Beyond the square, the St. Lawrence River is just steps away, the ferries crossing to Levis on the far shore, while the cliffs of Cap Diamant rise steeply above, with the Chateau Frontenac and the old city walls crowning the heights.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow available as a greeting card, a beautiful way to share a piece of Old Quebec's living history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFOR GREETING CARDS:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize available is: 4.25\"x5.5\".\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCards are blank inside, perfect for your own personal message.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA kraft envelope is included.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll greeting cards are packed in a clear cellophane bag.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePAPER \u0026amp; DESCRIPTION\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCards are of my original handmade marker sketches.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor my original work I use Copic, and Winsor and Newton alcohol-based ink markers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eECO EFFORTS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt's very important to us to keep being as eco-friendly as possible.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePLA compostable sleeves and recycled postcards.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe welcome and encourage any suggestions you might have.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eFollow Wynand's artwork under @downtownsketcher on Instagram!\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/downtownsketcher\/\"\u003ehttps:\/\/www.instagram.com\/downtownsketcher\/\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCOPYRIGHT\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e***************\u003cbr\u003eAny unauthorized reprint or use of this image is strictly prohibited.
