Blank greetings card with envelope featuring:

'The Death of General Wolfe' (James Wolfe) NPG D8366

© National Portrait Gallery, London

by S. Smith, after Benjamin West

General James Wolfe led the British attack on Quebec that ended French rule in Canada in 1759. He discovered a steep, unguarded path which enabled him to land his troops unobserved, however, Wolfe would never actually enter the city as he died the following day from his battle wounds. The importance of the conquest and his death, in the hour of victory, made Wolfe the eighteenth-century's most moving tragic hero.
