Louis Joseph, Marquis de Montcalm-Gogon

...from a painting at Chateau de Candiac, France

Picture




James Wolfe

...from a painting by Highmore

Both men died as a result of the battle of the Plains of Abraham.  Wolfe died on the field, Montcalm the next day.  Rather romantic paintings exist for both though each was painted much later than the event.
