My initial sketch of 1891 Calgary Lougheed House.
The most iconic heritage building 🏫 in Calgary, it is original home for Senator James Alexander Lougheed in 1891. The 14000 sqft mansion designed by James C. Bowes, Now @lougheedhouseyyc is a national historic site in the Beltline district of downtown Calgary. It was a family residence, a training center for young women, a women`s military barracks, Red Cross blood donor clinic.

About the Exhibit
“As we approach winter’s end, with muted colour in the Alberta landscape, it beckons for the return of sunlight; the warm embrace of spring. A rainbow resides in the impressionist paintings of Aeris Osborne to fill the air with bold energy, while we await the greens and gold of foliage; the reds, yellows, and purples of petals; the array of blues in sky and water. While we await new life…"
- Gabriela Rosende, Exhibit Curator

Last July, I got amazing opportunity to have a private tour to visit Calgary Lougheed House built in 1891 for one of Alberta Old Buildings painting series, thank you for the program manager Eyelyn Delgado allows me to visit some of the restricted area like balcony look over the courtyard and the top of the dome for me better understanding the building structure.
Lougheed House is one of the only surviving examples of a grand sandstone prairie mansion. Originally built in 1891 by James and Isabella Lougheed, it was enlarged in 1907 to accommodate their growing family and staff. At the time of construction, Lougheed House was outfitted with all the modern conveniences including central heating, hot and cold water, indoor plumbing, and electrical lighting. Designed by architect James R. Bowes in the Victorian eclectic style, it combines aspects of several distinct styles varying from Queen Anne Revival to French chateau architecture.
