"The Death of General Richard Montgomery" is a historical painting by the American artist John Trumbull, completed in 1786. It depicts the moment of the death of General Richard Montgomery during the Battle of Quebec, which was part of the American Revolutionary War. The painting is one of Trumbull's earlier works and is significant for its subject matter, as it portrays a key event in the struggle for American independence.

General Montgomery was killed on December 31, 1775, while leading an attack on Quebec City. In the painting, Trumbull captures the drama and pathos of the moment, showing Montgomery as he falls into the arms of his aides, with the battle raging around them. The work is noted for its emotional impact and its detailed representation of the uniforms and equipment of the period.

Trumbull, who served as an aide-de-camp to General George Washington during the Revolutionary War, was uniquely positioned to create such works due to his firsthand experience of the conflict and his access to its key figures. He went on to become one of the foremost painters of the American Revolution, creating a series of paintings that documented the pivotal moments and figures of the war.

"The Death of General Richard Montgomery" is part of Trumbull's series of historical paintings that also includes "The Declaration of Independence" and "The Surrender of Lord Cornwallis." These works were designed to promote the national identity of the United States by commemorating the heroes and events of the Revolution. Trumbull's paintings are characterized by their attention to historical accuracy and their use of dramatic composition to convey the significance of the events depicted.

Today, "The Death of General Richard Montgomery" is held in the collection of the Yale University Art Gallery. It remains an important example of early American history painting and a testament to the artistic legacy of John Trumbull, whose work has played a significant role in shaping the visual narrative of American independence.
