A golden statue of a crowned figure stands before a white, multi-level building with arched walkways and a tall steeple, surrounded by trees with bright autumn foliage. Inside this building is a replica of the"Scala Santa,” the Holy Stairs in Rome, a flight of 28 marble steps that are traditionally believed to be the ones Jesus climbed to face Pontius Pilate. Legend holds that the stairs were brought to Rome from Jerusalem by Saint Helena, the mother of Emperor Constantine. Devout pilgrims ascend the Scala Santa on their knees as an act of devotion and penance.

The Wolfe–Montcalm Monument in Quebec City, built in 1828 near Château Frontenac, honors British General Wolfe and French General Montcalm—rivals who died in the 1759 battle. It’s Quebec’s oldest monument and uniquely honors both sides.

The image shows the Wolfe-Montcalm Monument, a stone obelisk monument located in Quebec City, Quebec, Canada. The photo looks up at the obelisk towering above, reaching toward a blue sky with a few scattered clouds. Trees fill in the background. The monument honors the two opposing commanders, James Wolfe and Louis-Joseph de Montcalm, who died in the Battle of the Plains of Abraham in 1759. It is a unique monument that commemorates both the victorious and the defeated commanders of a battle.
