He grips Napoleon's neck between his legs; the two men face each other in profile, one staring up, terrified, the other looking down. Napoleon's right arm hangs down from the bed, his fist is clenched, his feet (right), with crisped toes, project from under the coverlet. The Dutchman wears a high-crowned hat, with a large (orange) cockade, and bulky breeches; his left hand is in his breeches pocket. The curtains and counterpane are patterned with eagles; the curtains hang from a circular canopy topped by a large crown and a trophy of sword, sceptre, and eagle. They are drawn aside to frame the two figures. On the fringed pelmet eagles alternate with crowns and a papal tiara, emblem of the humiliation of the Papacy. On the right stand two enormous fasces with projecting lictor's axes, the blades turned towards Napoleon. On a stool in front of the bed are the Emperor's bicorne and sword."--British Museum online catalogue</dc:description><dc:description>Title etched below image; letter "z" in final word "squeeze" is etched backwards.</dc:description><dc:description>Printmaker from British Museum catalogue.</dc:description><dc:description>Sheet trimmed within plate mark.</dc:description><dc:description>Mounted on leaf 47 of volume 12 of 14 volumes.</dc:description></oai_dc:dc>
