The Death of General Wolfe by Benjamin West

Died from 3 bullet wounds while decisively defeating the French under General Louis-Joseph le Marquis de Montcalm (also killed in the fray), outside Québec City during The Battle of the Plains of Abraham in 1759.

Part of the French & Indian Wars (7 Years War)

The painting caused an uproar at the time. The convention was to paint such things in Greek and Roman styles. West's decision to portray a contemporary scene with period accurate costumes and characters was extremely contreversial. Initially, King George III refused it after seeing it completed but later after it gained positive criticism he requested an autographed West original and it is still in the Royal Collection.

What the hell did they think they were guarding? No one was attacking Germany except a bit of East Prussia early on. The Germans were aggressors in it to shore up support for the monarchy, fuck over the SPD, and of course some good old fashioned lebensraum.
Also, where are the poison gas canisters?
