EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a significant historical artifact - a letter written by the Marquis de Montcalm, commander of French forces in Canada, during the British siege of Quebec in 1759. The letter is addressed to his aide-de-camp, Louis de Bougainville, and was penned on 5 September 1759. This document holds immense value as it provides insight into the events unfolding during the French and Indian War. In this image, one can observe the delicate handwriting of Montcalm as he communicates with his trusted companion amidst a critical moment in history. The letter serves as a testament to the bravery and determination exhibited by these military leaders who fought for control over New France. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Granger Art on Demand's Carousel Collection, we are transported back to that mid-18th century era when tensions were high and battles raged across North America. It reminds us of the sacrifices made by both sides during this tumultuous period. This print allows us to appreciate not only its artistic beauty but also its historical significance. It serves as a reminder of our shared past and encourages us to reflect upon those who came before us - their struggles, triumphs, and unwavering spirit in times of adversity.
