Permanent exhibition: Ozias Leduc's last masterpiece


Notre-Dame-de-la-Présentation Church, in Shawinigan-Sud, holds what is probably one of Canada's most beautiful frescoes : Ozias Leduc’s last masterpiece. This is an invitation to discover his life, his work and his inspiration.

The decoration of Notre-Dame-de-la-Présentation is part of the rich tradition of sacred art in Québec. However, very few churches underwent a complete planned pictorial decoration. Ozias Leduc, the master artist from St-Hilaire, Québec, was a leading figure in that area. The splendid decoration of Notre-Dame-de-la-Présentation eloquently portrays Leduc's approach to sacred painting.
