EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the intense moment of Montgomery's assault on the Lower Town, Quebec in 1775. Richard Montgomery, an Irish-born soldier who initially served in the British Army before fighting for the Americans, led this historic attack during America's failed invasion of Canada. In this 19th-century illustration taken from Cassell's History of England vol. iv, published by Cassell & Co Ltd, p. 221. , we witness the bravery and determination of Montgomery and his troops as they engage in battle against Canadian and British forces. The image portrays a scene filled with military action, showcasing soldiers armed with muskets and bayonets charging forward to conquer their adversaries. This significant event took place during the American Revolution when tensions were high between Britain and its colonies across North America. Montgomery's assault on Quebec was a crucial part of American history as it aimed to secure control over strategic territories. The print not only highlights the historical significance but also showcases the artistry behind capturing such moments through drawings. The detailed illustrations bring to life this pivotal chapter in American history while providing us with a glimpse into early 18th-century warfare tactics. As we reflect upon this image from Fine Art Finder by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by those who fought for independence during that tumultuous time period. It serves as a powerful reminder of our shared past and honors those who shaped our present-day nation.
