- Abstract:
- "Bonaparte stands in a dispensary opening off a military hospital, conspiratorially giving orders to a slyly grinning doctor who shows him a bottle labelled 'Poison'. The general points to the hospital, separated from the dispensary by a curtain, where men, apparently moribund, lie on bedsteads. In the dispensary are jars, bottles, scales, pestle, and mortar; a small crocodile hangs from the roof (cf. British Museum Satires No. 11057). The most persistent of all 'atrocity' charges; certain plague-stricken French soldiers being given opium on the retreat from Acre in May 1799, see British Museum Satires No. 10063."--British Museum online catalogue
