WOLFE AT QUEBEC, 1759
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating line engraving that depicts the historic moment when General James Wolfe led the English forces to capture Quebec on September 13,1759. This print, created in 1760 by an English artist, offers a detailed view of the siege and showcases the power dynamics of colonialism during this period. The image portrays a dramatic scene with British ships dominating the river as they transport troops for battle. General Wolfe stands prominently at the forefront, symbolizing leadership and determination. The imposing cliffs behind him represent both the physical challenges faced by his army and their strategic advantage in attacking from above. This artwork captures a pivotal event in Canadian history - it marks not only England's triumph over France but also signifies Britain's growing dominance in North America during the French and Indian War. The Battle of Quebec took place on what is now known as "the Heights of Abraham" or more commonly referred to as "the Plains of Abraham". It was here that General Wolfe's victory ultimately paved the way for New France to become part of the British Empire. The Granger Collection has once again provided us with an exceptional piece from their Carousel collection. This historical print serves as a reminder of Canada's complex past while showcasing Bradley Smith's artistic talent through intricate engravings.
