Purpose

Preliminary design and design for a relief panel for the funerary monument of Major-General James Wolfe, 1759, unexecuted (2)

Notes

The composition of this relief panel can be seen vaguely in Adam volumes 9/72 verso and 54/2/1, and more distinctly in Adam volumes 54/2/12-13. It is duplicated exactly in later variant presentation drawings for the design of the monument (Adam volumes 19/11-12 and 28/50), and appears to be the only element of the design which remains constant throughout.
