File
The three albums in this file document one aspect of Gilberte Christin de Cardaillac's artistic output - sketches drawn from life. Covering some 40 years, these albums chronicle the development of her technique and some of her favourite subjects.
While they primarily contain sketches, they also feature several preparatory drawings and more finished works, done in pencil, coloured pencil or watercolour, or sometimes a combination. The subjects are primarily life models and Quebec landscapes, notably in Sainte-Adèle, Sutton and Knowlton, Cap-Saint-Ignace and the Gaspé Peninsula.
Source of title proper: Based on the contents of the file.
