EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Scaling the Heights of Abraham" takes us back to a significant moment in English history. Illustrated by Major C. H. Wylly in the 1920s, it depicts a scene from the Glorious Battles of English History. The image showcases a soldier clad in a traditional military uniform, complete with a beret and tartan costume, as he valiantly climbs up an incredibly steep terrain. The soldier's effort is evident on his face, reflecting the determination required to conquer such challenging heights. His fellow comrades can be seen assisting him along the way, highlighting their camaraderie and teamwork amidst this arduous task. With rifles slung over their shoulders and plaid socks peeking out from beneath their kilts, these Scottish regiment troops embody resilience and strength. This illustration commemorates the defeat of the French army during the Battle of Quebec in 1759 on the Plains of Abraham. As they ascend towards victory on this plateau, one cannot help but feel inspired by their unwavering spirit. Henry A. Payne's color lithograph brings life to this historical event captured within its frame. Preserved within private collections today, this artwork serves as a reminder of past triumphs and sacrifices made by those who fought for England's glory.
