General note:

Painting entitled "Placing the Colours of the 38th Battalion, C.E.F., on Wolfe's Monument, Westminster Abbey, 1917". Work by Emily M. B. Warren (1869-1956)..
This painting is a small preliminary version for the two large (6' x 11') paintings known as "Canada's Tribute" which hung in the Parliament Buildings, 1921-1947, and which were purchased by the Canadian government in 1948.
