EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a pivotal moment in history - Benedict Arnold's audacious attack on the British in Quebec during the harsh winter of 1775. The hand-colored halftone, skillfully illustrated by F. C. Yohn in the 19th century, brings to life the intensity and bravery of this American military invasion. The image transports us back to that fateful time, capturing the essence of hardship and determination that defined this chapter of American history. As snow blankets the landscape, Arnold leads his army through treacherous terrain from Maine towards Montreal and ultimately Quebec. The bitter cold serves as a formidable adversary for both sides involved in this battle for control over Canada. With its rich historical significance, this illustration symbolizes not only an important event within North America but also highlights the larger context of the Revolutionary War. It represents a critical turning point where American forces sought to expand their influence beyond New England and challenge British dominance. F. C. Yohn's artistry masterfully captures every detail - from soldiers trudging through deep snowdrifts to smoke billowing from muskets amidst fierce combat. This vintage print offers viewers a glimpse into an era filled with valor, sacrifice, and unwavering resolve exhibited by those who fought for independence under Arnold's command. As we admire this piece, let us remember its profound significance within our shared heritage while honoring those who shaped our nation's destiny during these tumultuous times.
