Image depicting a winter view of Québec with hundreds of people standing on the ice between the citadel and Point Lévis. A man accompanied by a dog in the foreground seems to continue a theme seen in items such as those with accession numbers R9266-130 and R9266-131., A loose piece of wove paper is found under the hinged mount. It is browned and carries four holes, one at each corner, as if it had been torn away from the work. The lower right-hand corner of this piece of paper carries the inscription "Quebec J.P.C."
