EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Wolfes army scaling the cliffs at Quebec 1759" transports us back to a pivotal moment in history. Created around 1920 by Henry Sandham, it showcases a vivid and detailed colour lithograph that brings to life the dramatic events of the past. The image depicts an awe-inspiring scene as Wolfes army fearlessly ascends the towering cliffs of Quebec in 1759. Dressed in their distinctive costumes and uniforms, these brave soldiers from the British Empire are shown conquering seemingly insurmountable obstacles with determination and courage. The composition captures not only the physical feat of climbing but also reveals glimpses into the historical context. The presence of highlanders signifies their crucial role in this battle, while French forces can be seen defending their territory below. Weapons held tightly in hand reflect both sides' readiness for combat. This artwork is part of Sandham's larger work called "Romance of Canada" published by TC & EC Jack in 1910. It serves as a testament to Canadian history and its significant impact on North America's development. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded of Canada's rich heritage and how its people have shaped the continent's destiny. This print stands as a tribute to all Canadians who have contributed to building a nation rooted in bravery, resilience, and unity.
