This is an original oil painting of Eglise Notre-Dame-de-Bon-Secours also known as 'the Sailor's Church'. It is located in the district of Old Montreal in Montreal, Quebec.

In the 19th century, the church came to be a pilgrimage site for the sailors who arrived in the Old Port of Montreal; they would make offerings to the Virgin in gratitude for her "good help" for safe sea voyages. In 1849, Mgr. Ignace Bourget, Bishop of Montreal, gave the chapel a statue of the Virgin as Star of the Sea, which was placed atop the church overlooking the harbour. Emphasizing the connection of the chapel and the port, the chapel is often called the Sailors' Church. The church is located at 400 rue St. Paul.
