George-Étienne Cartier Monument and the Mount Royal Cross in autumn - Mount Royal.
The Sir George-Étienne Cartier Monument is one of the most prominent features of Montreal’s Olmsted-designed Mount Royal Park. The park and its surroundings is the first landscape in Quebec registered as a protected historic and natural district. The monument, which is topped by a winged Goddess of Liberty, was inaugurated in 1919. On the front, or East side of the monument, George-Étienne Cartier is portrayed standing above four other figures, each one representing a Province that signed the Canadian Confederation of 1867.
Thanks a lot Daphne!
