Illustration – Wolfe’s Redoubt Trail Panels

Seven interpretive panels were designed for the Wolfe’s Redoubt Trail, to educate visitors about siege sites, and the role they played in Canada’s history – two of the seven panels required custom illustration work.

The content on panel two explains how the British were able to overthrow Louisbourg through sheer numbers, yet there was no historic imagery available to support it. So, I illustrated an infographic, designed for impact, to provide an immediate comparison between British and French forces – it’s no wonder how the British were victorious.

Panel five is located directly in front of what would have been the redoubt entrance, and is tasked with describing what’s left of the redoubt to visitors. Source-imagery was scarce, so I created a custom, perspective illustration to match the angle at which visitors were viewing the redoubt, making it easier to visualize how they used to look.
