Photograph of Mertie West sitting beside a picture window at Chateau Lake Louise and looking out at the landscape. In the foreground, Mertie West sits in a chair at right. She sits in profile, facing left, but looks through the picture window behind her. A small table stands along the lower left edge and curtains hang down beside the window, along the right edge. The picture window spans the width of the image and extends beyond the top frame. A view of the adjacent landscape is framed by the window. The landscaped grounds of the hotel lie beyond the window, lining its bottom edge. Further back, Lake Louise stretches across the image. At the far end of the lake, mountains rise to the right and left. Victoria Glacier sits above Lake Louise at center.
Photograph of Mertie West sitting at a writing desk in the lobby of the Chateau Lake Louise. A chair upholstered in a floral print sits in the foreground at center and faces left. Beyond it, Mertie West sits in the near distance, left-of-center, at a writing desk. Mertie sits in profile, facing left. The desk, obscured by a plant in the foreground, stands propped against a wall at left. The left wall is lined by large, arched windows and stretches back towards center. Behind and to the right of Mertie, the lobby extends into the background. An arched entryway stands at the far end of the lobby at center and a decorative ceiling hovers over the lobby at right.
An out-of-focus photograph of Mertie West sitting at a writing desk in the lobby of Chateau Lake Louise. Mertie West sits in profile at center, facing right. She sits at a writing desk to the right of her. The desk is propped against a wall. Behind Mertie, a large picture window is inset into the wall at right. The lobby extends behind her. An archway rises directly behind Mertie and a plant in a vase sits on a table behind and to the left of Mertie. In the foreground, an empty chair sits in front of Mertie, left-of-center.
Photograph of Mertie West standing on a walkway at Chateau Lake Louise in front of Lake Louise. A wide walkway enters frame from the bottom edge at left and stretches back on an angle towards center. Flower beds line both sides of the walkway in the foreground. In the near distance, the walkway dead-ends into another walkway that that passes horizontally through the mid-ground. At center, Mertie West stands at this crossroads in the near distance. She faces towards the camera and is viewed from a slightly elevated perspective. Behind her, a manicured lawn lines the back edge of the walkway, extending back towards the edge of Lake Louise. Lake Louise sits in the background. At the far end of the lake, mountains rise. Six punched holes line the bottom edge.
