EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic Battle of the Plains of Abraham, which took place on September 13th, 1759. The battle was a crucial moment in the Seven Years War between Britain and France, fought just outside the walls of Quebec City. This pivotal victory for the British ultimately led to the loss of French control over significant territories. The image showcases a scene filled with armaments and cannons amidst billowing smoke from explosions. The Union Jack flag proudly flies high above the battlefield as a symbol of British dominance. In contrast, we see banners representing France fluttering in defeat. This illustration is taken from Charles R Tuttle's "Popular history of the Dominion of Canada" published between 1877 and 1879. It provides an artistic representation that brings this important historical event to life. The monochrome aesthetic adds a sense of gravitas to this depiction, emphasizing its connection to both the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries when colonialism was at its peak. Through this photo print, viewers can gain insight into how warfare was conducted during this era while also appreciating its significance in shaping Canadian history.
