EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Capitulation of Oswego, 1756" captures a significant moment in history when French forces emerged victorious over the British during the Battle of Fort Oswego in New York state. This illustration, taken from Charles R. Tuttle's Popular History of the Dominion of Canada, provides a visual representation of this pivotal event that shaped colonialism and warfare in the 18th century. In this image, we see a coastal scene with a fortification overlooking the sea. The fort stands tall as cannons are positioned strategically to defend against enemy attacks. A flag bearing the French standard flutters proudly above it, symbolizing their triumph over Britain. Amidst this backdrop, men on horseback can be seen riding through the port area while native Americans observe from afar. The presence of these individuals highlights not only the diverse range of people involved but also underscores how this conflict impacted various communities. This print offers us a glimpse into an era marked by intense rivalries between European powers for control over North America. It serves as a reminder of both our shared history and the consequences that arise from such conflicts.
