* Swane 266. Fine impression of this great print, showing the heroic death of American general Richard Montgomery (1738-1775) during the siege of Quebec. Montgomery is the central figure in the picture, surrounded by soldiers in various uniforms, scouts and even an Indian volunteer. ** Richard Montgomery was born in Ireland. Initially he served the British forces in North America, but changed side and became second in command in the Montreal expedition during the War of Independence.
*** John Trumbull´s (1756-1843) painting is a good example of his very narrative pictures from the War of Independence. He met the talented Danish engraver J.F. Clemens (1748-1831) in London while the latter considered pursuing an international career. The first impression was published in 1795, and Clemens was payed no less than 1050 Guineas for his work.
