Ottawa was chosen by Queen Victoria in 1857 to be the capital of the Province of Canada, a deliberately neutral compromise location straddling the border between English-speaking Canada West and French-speaking Canada East, and it went on to become the capital of the Dominion of Canada at Confederation in 1867. The city's Parliament Hill, overlooking the Ottawa River, was built in the Gothic Revival style through the 1860s and remains one of Canada's most recognizable landmarks. Panoramic views like this one, which typically included insets of principal buildings alongside the main map, were a common way for publishers to showcase a young capital's growing collection of government architecture.
