Abstract:
A satire on Napoleon. "The 'dwarf' (Lord Kirkcudbright) stands beside Glumdalclitch's empty chair at the dinner-table. A marrow-bone stands erect on the plate; from this emerges Napoleon, three-quarter length., wearing his bicorne and clenching both fists. The 'dwarf' says: "There you little insignificant Pigmy, I've Bone'd you." Kirkcudbright, in profile to the right., is based on Gillray's caricature, see BMSat 9905, head, figure, dress and sword being closely copied; but he stands chapeau-bras, and the arms and hands are differently posed: r. hand on the edge of the table, left hand held up derisively above Napoleon. The legs are cut off below the knee by the lower margin. On the back of the chair is a crown; on plate, knife, and fork are the Royal Arms."--British Musuen online catalogue

Abstract:
"Princess Charlotte (three-quarter length) stands at a table looking into a large (chinoiserie) punch-bowl (right) in which Bonaparte frantically swims towards her, among agitated waves, his large hat floating in the water. The Princess, very mature for her seven years, wears a cap with a jewelled fillet inscribed 'Ich Di[en]' in which are three feathers. Round her neck on a rope of pearls hangs an oval miniature of the Prince of Wales. She holds her left fist over the bowl, saying, "There you impertinent boasting swaggering Pigmy, - take that, - You attempt to take my Grandpap's Crown indeed, and plunder all his Subjects, Fillet you know that the Spirit and Indignation of every Girl in the Kingdom is roused at your Insolence."--British Museum online catalogue
