EDITORS COMMENTS
The Victory of Montcalm's Troops at Carillon, 1758" captures the intense and triumphant moment during the French and Indian War. Painted by Henry Alexander Ogden, this oil on canvas print showcases a pivotal battle that took place on July 8,1758. In this historic scene, General Louis-Joseph de Montcalm leads his army of approximately 4,000 men against British troops commanded by General James Abercrombie. The clash occurred in Ticonderoga, New York, now known as Fort Ticonderoga Museum. The painting depicts the resounding victory of Montcalm's troops over their British counterparts. A soldier proudly waves a flag bearing the French colors high above his head while others celebrate their triumph on the battlefield. The banner symbolizes not only their military success but also their determination to defend North America from foreign invasion. Ogden skillfully portrays the emotions felt by both sides: defeat for Abercrombie's forces and jubilation for Montcalm's soldiers. This artwork serves as a testament to the bravery and strategic prowess displayed during this significant event in American history. "The Victory of Montcalm's Troops at Carillon" is an invaluable piece that allows us to relive an important chapter in our nation's past.
