EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historical moment of James Wolfe's death on the Heights of Abraham in 1759. The English soldier, General Wolfe, played a pivotal role in the capture of Quebec from the French during this significant colonial conflict. In this vividly colored engraving created by artist Edward Corbould around 1870, we witness a poignant scene that forever changed the course of history. The image portrays the aftermath of a fierce battle where both British and French forces lost their commanders; General Montcalm for the French and General Wolfe for the British. The artist masterfully captures the intensity and drama of this pivotal event with meticulous attention to detail. As we gaze upon this piece, we are transported back to that fateful day on September 13th, 1759. The clash between these two great powers reverberates through time as an emblematic representation of colonialism and war. Edward Corbould's skillful craftsmanship breathes life into each stroke, allowing us to immerse ourselves in this historic moment. This remarkable print serves as a testament to James Wolfe's bravery and sacrifice while shedding light on one chapter in Britain's imperial past.
