EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured lithograph captures the intense Battle of Monterrey during the Mexican-American War in 1846. The print, created by Carl Nebel, depicts the pivotal moment when American forces under General Zachary Taylor defeated the Mexican Army of the North led by General Pedro de Ampudia. The scene is filled with action and drama as artillery fire engulfs the battlefield. American soldiers armed with powerful weapons stand resolute against their Mexican counterparts who fiercely defend their position. In a remarkable display of unity, Irish-American volunteers from the Saint Patrick's Battalion join forces with American troops to fight alongside them. The lithograph beautifully portrays the chaos and devastation caused by this historic battle. The vibrant colours bring life to every detail - from smoke billowing out of cannons to soldiers engaged in combat on horseback. It serves as a vivid reminder of the bravery and sacrifice exhibited by both sides during this conflict. As we gaze upon this nineteenth-century artwork, we are transported back in time to witness a crucial chapter in United States history unfold before our eyes. This print not only commemorates an important military victory but also pays homage to those who fought valiantly for their respective nations
