Cloth Map: Quebec City 1776
Explore one of the northernmost campaigns of the American Revolution with this full-color cloth map of Quebec City, depicting the city, its defenses, and the positions of American and Canadian forces during the harsh winter siege of 1775–1776. Based on William Faden’s historically significant map, “Plan of the city and environs of Quebec… with its siege and blockade by the Americans,” this reproduction reveals the dramatic struggle for control of the gateway to Canada.
This large 35 × 26.5 inch map is printed on a crease-resistant cotton-polyester blend, offering a durable, vibrant display piece that doubles as functional décor. The fabric is machine washable and iron-safe on low heat, making it ideal for wall hanging, gifting, or educational use.
Each map includes a QR code link to download the Colonial Gazette PDF, featuring a 4-page annotated guide that explains the strategic geography, key landmarks, troop positions, and the broader significance of the failed American invasion of Canada.
Carefully restored and upsampled from an original historical document, this cloth map preserves authentic imperfections while enhancing clarity. Printed with eco-friendly, water-based inks and cut and hemmed by hand, each piece reflects the character of artisan textile production, with slight variations and minimal shrinkage possible.
