EDITORS COMMENTS
This photogravure print takes us back to a pivotal moment in history - the Battle of Quebec on 13 September 1759. The image depicts Major General James Wolfe and the Marquis de Montcalm, two formidable military leaders, locked in an intense confrontation during this significant clash between English and French forces. The artist, Augustus Tholey, skillfully captures the tension and drama of this historic event. The details are strikingly vivid, allowing us to witness the determination etched on both generals' faces as they strategize their next moves on the battlefield. Set against the backdrop of Canada's picturesque landscape, with its rolling hills and sprawling plains known as the Heights of Abraham, this painting transports us to a time when colonial powers fought fiercely for control over New France. Wolfe stands tall with his Union Jack flag fluttering proudly behind him, symbolizing England's ambitions in this new territory. On the other side stands Montcalm, a nobleman representing French interests in North America. Their meeting at Quebec was not only a clash of armies but also a collision of cultures and aspirations. This single moment captured by Tholey encapsulates centuries-long conflicts that shaped nations and defined borders. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry from 1894 through modern eyes, it serves as a powerful reminder of how history continues to shape our present-day world.
