Abstract:
"Wellington, handsome and youthful, stands beside his white charger; he wears a star (K.G., 4 Mar. 1813) and a star dangles from his horse's head. A young officer runs up to him from the left hat in hand, proffering a field marshal's baton; he says: "General I greet you with the tydeings of complete Victory the Usurper and his Field Marshal have fled, and left all their Cannon, Amunition, Baggage, Military Chest, provision, and I here present you with Marshall Jourdans Baton of command!" Wellington says: "May this Trophy prove--our hope of future victory, and England once more restore Spain to her lawful Soveriegn!" Between and behind them stands a third officer, looking at Wellington with both arms raised ecstatically. On the extreme right and almost in back view an officer looks through a telescope saying, "There goes King Joey!" He looks towards tiny figures on a bluff (left) near the towers of Vittoria. They stand on raised ground in the foreground. Behind (left) English infantry run forward with fixed bayonets; bodies lie on the ground."--British Museum online catalogue

"A scene in the Empress's dressing-room. Marie Louise is horror-struck at the appearance of Napoleon who advances towards her in profile astride the back of a crawling Mameluke; he is held up by two other Mamelukes who support his arms and shoulders. He is terribly emaciated and appears moribund. He wears uniform; his legs, feet, and hands are swathed in bandages, his (former) ear and nose covered with black patches. The crawling Mameluke, presumably Roustan, holds out a bottle containing a pointed nose, and labelled 'Le Nez de l'Empereur'. Immediately behind Napoleon and his three supporters are two kneeling Mamelukes, each reverently holding a tasselled cushion supporting a bottle; one being labelled 'Les Doights [sic] de l'Empereur Napole . . .', the other, 'Les Oreilles de l'Empereur Napoleon'. Behind them (left) another Mameluke advances with a bottle labelled 'Les Doights du pied de l Empereur Bon . . .' The Mamelukes wear Turkish dress with turbans. Napoleon looks in tragic silence at his wife, who is seated in regal state but turns aside weeping with violent gestures of despair. A small terrestrial globe decorates her chair; her foot rests on a stool in the form of a flattened polar hemisphere on which the word 'Brit[ain]' is visible. Over her low-cut dress is an ermine-bordered robe clasped with a fleur-de-lis. She is supported by an emaciated court-lady, with a patched face, proffering a smelling-bottle, whose profile and a small crown show that she is one of Napoleon's sisters; two other ladies, wearing crowns, stand behind the Empress, registering consternation. A less conspicuous lady weeps. On the Empress's right kneels the Governess of the King of Rome, Mme de Montesquiou, holding the screaming child, and weeping noisily. He registers angry terror at the sight of his father; his little crown has fallen off. His features, though fore-shortened and distorted, resemble those of his father, cf. British Museum satires no. 11719. He wears an ermine-trimmed robe over his childish tunic and breeches. Behind the Governess is a draped dressing-table, the drapery decorated by a large fleur-de-lis, and the toilet boxes ornamented with crowns. A terrified monkey climbs up the mirror, clutching at the crown which surmounts it, and looking over its shoulder at the shocking spectacle presented by the Emperor. On the extreme right a lap-dog stands on a cushion barking furiously at Napoleon. On the ground on the extreme left are two large round coffers, one inscribed 'Coffre Pour la Bijoutère [sic] Russe', the other expectantly open. Voluminous draperies on the left and right, supported on the right by a pillar add to the regal character of the room."--British Museum online catalogue

"Napoleon, a little figure with a big head, stands with legs astride, head turned to the left, hair on end; his arms are extended, fingers spread, mouth open as if shrieking. He has a grotesque profile with corvine nose and wears high jack-boots with large spurs. At his feet lies a broken baton inscribed 'Magic Wand'. Five allies threaten him at point-blank range, and from a circle of cloud an arm emerges holding a conical 'Allied Extinguisher' above his head. On the extreme left Wellington aims a blunderbuss, saying, "Take a good aim at the Head Gentlemen, & we shall soon settle the Business." On Wellington's left stands Francis I, aiming a small pistol; by his head are the words: 'A way Mr Boney the Hand of Justice [see No. 12247] will put your Night Cap on at last.' On the extreme right a fat Dutchman, wearing a conical cap as in No. 12105, stands behind a small cannon holding a lighted match and a cannon-ball inscribed 'Orange Boven'; he says: "I'll deal out my Oranges to him Wholesale." Beside him are piled cannon-balls inscribed 'Orange'. In his hat are orange ribbons inscribed 'Orange Boven' and a tobacco-pipe. Next him the Tsar leans forward, aiming a large pistol; he says: "I'll rattle a few Snow Balls at his Cranium." On Alexander's right stands Bernadotte, aiming a small pistol; he says: "By gar we shall mak de head look like de plomb Pudding." All but the Dutchman wear uniform with cocked hats.

"Coates in a pose suggesting Harlequin in a fencing-match (and like that of the clown in British Museum Satires No. 9003), sits on the stage, his trunk almost at right angles to his legs which slant stiffly towards the stage-box (left). He grins at the occupants, pointing his sword towards them and raising his left arm. He wears his jewelled hat with the enormous feathers, cloak, tunic, and sash, as in British Museum Satires No. 11769. He declaims Lothario's speech when he falls dying, after the duel with Altamont, beginning: "Oh Altamont! thy genius is the stronger, thou hast prevail'd . . ." [Rowe, 'Fair Penitent', iv. 1]. He lies on bright green ground, a garden scene with trees and skaters forming a background.

Abstract:
"A sea-monster (left) discharges flames and missiles against a British vessel, represented by a corner of the deck (right), the taffrail inscribed 'British Oak'. On this stands a sailor, clapping his right hand to his posterior; his left holds his sabre, inscribed 'British Steel', with which he steadies himself, the point resting on the deck. He looks over his shoulder at the monster with a contemptuous scowl. In his round hat is a broad blue ribbon inscribed in large letters 'True Blue Dreadnought'. The monster, or torpedo, is barrel-shaped, with fanged and gaping jaws, a huge eye, and smoke, flame, and thunderbolts rising from its nostrils. On its back stands a demon holding the American flag and pointing to a skeleton, Death, which stands, clenching its fists in a pugilistic attitude, in the flames rushing from the torpedo's jaws. The demon says to the skeleton: "Grapple him Citizen and I'll play one of my Infernal capers under his Bottom." The skeleton says to the sailor: "I'll tip you a Yankey Torpedo." The sailor: "Blow up my hull indeed-- you may Kiss my--tafferal--Mr Yankey doodle--"Shiver me--I'll tip you a taste of the Shannon and send you down to old Davy." From the torpedo's jaws, among the flames, come serpents; objects discharged against the ship are a cannon, pistol, powder-barrel, &c., all emitting fire, and also crowbar, scourge, chain-shot, spear, cross-bones, shears, hammer, pincers."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

In the background a dense crowd is in procession, backed by the houses of the city; a bonfire burns unattended.

Abstract:
"A smiling bearded Cossack strides towards the spectator, spear in hand, with the left hand he places his conical furred cap over a tiny terrified Napoleon. He says: "I'll Extinguish Your little French-- Farthing--Rush light--Master Boney." Napoleon exclaims, trying to run away: "Death and Fury!--how I burn with Rage--those "Frightful--" Contempable [sic] Cossacks has Clouded all my hopes." They are on a plateau: the head of the Cossack's horse is on the extreme left; troops are marching on the plain, where a Cossack is galloping. In the background is the walled town of Leipzig, backed by mountains."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"A mêlée, in which British soldiers put Frenchmen to flight. In the foreground (left) a burly grenadier prods with his bayonet a ragged man from whose head falls a large sirloin and its dish which he had been trying to carry off. The man shouts; "Oh! Jean Bull vill you not let me have one little bit of Beef??!" [A catch-phrase, cf. British Museum Satires No. 5790.] John answers: "No, No, I'll be d--d if you take the Roast Beef with you." At their feet are a sack of coin, baskets of provisions, wine, bread; a large pot of 'soup meagre' is overturned. On the right a Highlander beside a cannon with a gun-carriage inscribed 'N', seizes a French ragamuffin by his long pigtail, and raises his sword, saying, "Stand out O' the way loons whilst I tak your Last Cannon (see British Museum Satires No. 12069)." In the middle distance French soldiers flee (left to right) before a bayonet charge from men wearing shakos. On a hill behind (left), Wellington on a curvetting white charger surveys the scene; a soldier stands beside him holding a Union flag; both wave their hats. A pendant figure on the right is Joseph Bonaparte fleeing to the right on a galloping ass, his crown falling from his head, his hair rising, and his hands together as if in prayer; he looks behind in terror, exclaiming: "O vat de devil vill Brother Nap say?!!" Beside him a signpost points 'To France'. In the centre a man holds up Marshal Jourdan spiked on his bayonet. Jourdan shrieks: "Oh! My Batoon (his baton falls from his hand)." The soldier answers: "it's oh your Bottom I think"."--British Museum online catalogue

An angry woman (right) tugs at the coat-tails of one of them; she has a tiny sunshade, and like her husband is grossly fat. Bathing machines are in the water, with hoods covering the steps to the sea. A fat bathing woman pushes a lady up the steps of a machine. Behind the spectators is a 'Circulating Library'; above the lower floors is a large balcony from which more men are gazing through telescopes. On the extreme right is a doorway placarded: 'Hot Sea Baths'; a fat man with a crutch walks in. In the background a jetty projects from the sands, with a windlass, and packages of goods.

Napoleon's bicorne is falling to the ground, his sword flies up, attached to the belt. The Devil grasps Napoleon by the left ankle. He is a naked satyr with hairy legs, barbed tail, fierce talons, as in British Museum Satires No. 6283 by Rowlandson. The Dutchman holds a goblet above his head, in his left hand is a long tobacco-pipe. He wears the usual bulky breeches with short jacket, and has a big (orange) cockade in his high-crowned hat.

Plate from 'Town Talk', iv. 247. A procession of coaches through 'Cavendish Square', the houses of which form a background, together with a street which recedes in perspective on the left. The foremost coach (right) has a roof shaped like a Chinese pagoda and decorated with bells; on the apex is a seat occupied by an ape, dressed as a man, who rings a handbell and blows a horn. Bells are attached to the springs of the coach. The arms, surmounted by a coronet, are crossed whips, the crest a fool's head. A man seated on the box turns to the driver to say: "No bad scheme of Sr Harry's to get the Amateur [Coates] to perform today! tolerable attendance." The driver wears a conical hat with a vast brim, manifold capes, and a large nosegay, with top-boots. Two servants sit in the rumble; one points to the ape, saying, "What do you think Tom of our new fellow Servant! did Master get him from Bond Street." The other answers: "Oh No! hes not one of the Loungers [see No. 8377, &c.] Master had him from Exeter Change [menagerie] he has been well educated you see." The second equipage is the odd-shaped curricle of 'Romeo' Coates, see No. 11768, &c., drawn by four horses, whose harness, like the curricle, is decorated with cocks. He is dressed as Lothario, see No. 11769, &c., with three huge feathers towering from his hat. He says: "I scorn that odious uniform which would hide the graces of my form and those detestable boots would spoil a most delectable leg!--Bless us! how we draw, out of the theatre as well as in." The following coach is on the extreme left; its roof is a four-sided pinnacle topped with a spike; the driver is dressed like the man on the first coach. He says (of Coates): "I'll back him to spar with Molineaux at St Martins Court for the benefit of Carter." The man beside him answers: "Aye my Lord! or I'll take the chance of the day for my debt, and remove the execution from your carriage and horses." A man on horseback in the background shouts: "your lordship had better take the Opera House, as it will be for a charitable purpose." The road is crowded with spectators many of whom wave their hats. Tiny coaches proceed along the Square from right to left, to join the procession. In the foreground is a row of well-dressed spectators in back view. Shouts rise from the distant crowd: "The Hobbies! The Hobbies"; "Cock a-doodle do"; "The Monologue"; "Bravo Romeo." On the extreme right is the gilt equestrian statue of the Duke of Cumberland, erected in 1770.--British Museum onlne catalogue

"A night scene, broadly burlesqued. Napoleon, in profile to the left, strides in furtive haste towards a massive gate, directing the beam of a dark lantern against it. From between his coat-tails a long white feather (see British Museum Satires No. 12613) floats behind him, emerging from a cluster of shorter ones. He wears an enormous bicorne, with a plume set in an ornament composed of a crown and olive-twigs (as in British Museum Satires No. 11998), a sash and sabre over his long coat, tasselled Hessians with huge spurs. A head wearing a night-cap looks through the bars which form the top of the gate under a stone arch, to say: "Rap--Rap--Ra--Who comes there--what Midnight disturbers are you." An officer (actually Caulaincourt) crouches at the gate holding the knocker which is set in a great lion's mouth, and beckons towards Napoleon, answering, "It's only Count Vincen"--Alias--Little Boney. the Imperial Fugitive--returned from Victory." The gate-keeper: "Alias-- who"--Alias the Divil you mean." In front of Napoleon's foremost foot a large frog leaps forward; behind him a lean fierce cur barks: "A Russian Cur-- Bow--Wow--Wow." A large label floats back from Napoleon's mouth, inscribed: "hist--is that the Croaking of Frogs I hear--I mistake--its' only the Sycophant Lads in Paris--hurra-ing at My unexpected and precipate [sic] return. thank my Luckey Stars--I have got out of the clutches of them Damd Cossack Curs"--or I should have been food for Bears--long before this time."

"An elaborate sign-post on a pillar, with five arms topped by a fool's cap, stands in the centre of a landscape. The directions are: 'To Love--you are requested not to pluck the Roses till they fall off. To Prison. NB The Courts of Law will shew the way, and take care of your Luggage. To Honour carry Arms with you as you will not get through without a Duel. To Matrimony Caution--Travel this road in boots and wear gloves it being overrun with Nettles. To the Undertakers Observe--the nearest way through the Apothecary Shop.' On the column: 'If you cannot read you must take your Chance.' A well-dressed English traveller (left) addresses a sturdy Irishman (right): "Why Pat! you have a variety of curious Roads here, but hav'nt you any Road to Preferment?" Pat answers: "Arrah my Jewel, but that Road has been removed to England ever since the Union; you pass through it to the Kings Palace and I['m] tould it's the dirtiest Road in Great Britain!"."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Eight designs in two rows, each with lines parodying 'the House that Jack built' etched above each. Some section of the bridge appears in Nos. 1-5. [1] Tiny French soldiers gallop across the bridge; a man punts in the rapidly flowing river. Behind is Leipzig, a walled town backed by hills. Above: "This is the Bridge that was blown into air." [2] Three men, wearing helmets and aprons, excavate a pit beside the bridge, from which a man looks down: "These are the Miners that had the care / Of mining the Bridge . . . [&c.]." [3] A Grenadier corporal holds a long match towards the covered pit; three tiny Grenadiers run across the bridge: "This is the Corporal, stout and strong, / Who fired the Mine with his match so long, / Which was made by the Miners . . . [&c.]." [4] A swaggering officer points at the ground, looking over his shoulder at the corporal, who runs forward with his match, saluting obsequiously: "This is the Colonel of Infantry, Who ordered the Corporal . . . [&c.]." [5] The colonel listens deferentially to an officer who whispers in his ear, pointing downwards: "This is the Marshal of high degree / Who whispered the Colonel.. .[&c.]." [6] Napoleon gallops from the battlefield, indicated by a drum in the foreground and bodies in the background: "This is the Emperor who scampered away, / And left the Marshal . . . [&c.]." [7] Refugees, including women with infants and an old farmer, make gestures of despair. Behind is the blazing town which more fugitives are leaving: "These are the Thousands who cursed the day, / Which made him Emperor ... [&c.]." [8] Four allied sovereigns in a tent consult over a map held between them. Alexander (left) sits on a camp-stool, the others stoop over the map: the King of Prussia is in back view, facing the Emperor of Austria. Bernadotte faces the Tsar: "These are the Monarchs so gen'rous and brave, / Who conquered the Tyrant, and Liberty gave, / To Thousands on Thousands . . . [&c.]"."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Napoleon mounted on an ass in profile to the right faces a piece of water in which 'Dutch light Horse' (cf. British Museum Satires No. 8478), fat Dutch soldiers, are mounted on huge frogs. All wear bonnets rouges with bulky breeches defining heavy posteriors. All hold drawn sabres and have small kegs (of Hollands) under the left arm; although they are smoking they have a disciplined and martial appearance compared with the Frenchmen. Napoleon wears a huge bicorne with crown and plume, and holds a sabre against his shoulder. His ass brays and urinates violently. A burlesqued and very miscellaneous staff and escort is grouped behind him; they have a tricolour flag and an eagle, while a soldier holding a second eagle struggles painfully out of the water. Immediately behind Napoleon are a drummer beating a drum, and a dwarfish companion blowing a fife. Both wear high conical caps with drooping peaks. A soldier with curved ('cheese-cutter') shins negligently holds a musket, looking mournfully at a fat friar, also with a musket, who drinks from a bottle of 'Friars Balsam'. There is an eighth man with a grotesquely sharp profile. In the background a column of tiny soldiers stretches away in an endless line to the right. Behind them are the roofs and towers of a town."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Napoleon stands, colossus-like, legs apart, his head turned in profile to the right, looking down with an expression of despair. He is on a high dais beside his throne (right), and turns his back on the crowded hall. He wears a crown and imperial robe over ragged uniform. A tattered sleeve leaves his right forearm and elbow bare; his legs are naked between tattered remnants of breeches and spurred boots through which his toes project. He weeps, with a handkerchief to his eye, and his right hand touching the star on his breast. Behind him (left) is a sea of heads receding in perspective; these are burlesqued, with expressions registering dismay, cynicism, or sly satisfaction. Among them are three bishops wearing mitres. At the back of the hall is a gallery filled with heads on a tiny scale, feathered head-dresses show them to be ladies. Napoleon's words fill a large label covering the upper part of the design: "I myself entered Russia, the Russian armies could not stand before our armies. The French arms were constantly victorious.---- ------"a swarm of Tartars turned their ---- parricidal hands against the finest provinces of that vast Empire which they had been called to defend.---- "But the excessive and premature rigour of the winter brought down a heavy calamity upon my army---- in a few nights I saw every thing change.---- "the misfortunes produced by rigour of hoar frosts, have been made apparent in all their extent, ---- I experienced great losses--they would have broken my heart, if under such circumstances I could have been accessible to any other sentiments than those of the interest,--the glory,--and the future prosperity of my people.-- "I have signed with the Pope a Concordat, which terminates all the diffirences [sic] that unfortunately had arisen in the Church.--The French dynasty--reigns,-- and will reign in Spain.--I am satisfied with all my allies.--I will abandon none of them.--The Russians shall return into their frightful climate [cf.

Abstract:
"Napoleon, a grotesque mannikin in a strait-waistcoat, sits on a three-legged 'Stool of Repentance' which stands in a large tub of 'Hot Water', whose steaming contents are inscribed 'Sea of Troubles'. The waistcoat is inscribed 'Allied Strait Waist-coat'; it has long sleeves extending far beyond his hands, the ends held by the Tsar (left) and a Cossack (right) so that the captive's arms are horizontally extended. His head is bald and is in profile to the left; he has a beak-like nose and his mouth gapes like a young bird's for a huge bolus inscribed 'Invasion of France' which John Bull, a fat 'cit', puts into his mouth. Alexander, who wears an ill-fitting bag-wig poised on his own hair, holds a knout with knotted lashes, inscribed 'Russia Hemp'; he says: "I have found, a constant application of this Russian Knout to work Wonders!!" John Bull, who stands beside him, says: "Work away my Masters I'll pay you your fees ay ay rave & rant Master Boney but the Devil will Bone you at last." In the centre of the design, high above the other figures, stands a grotesque Dutchman, with a conical hat, a frill round his neck, and grinning features. In his hat is a ribbon inscribed 'Orange' and a pipe. He holds up a short cannon or mortar inscribed 'Dutch Drops' [see British Museum Satires No. 12114], from which pours a flood containing tiny replicas of himself armed with dagger, axe, a blunderbuss or bayonet, who descend upon Napoleon's head; among these are balls (bullets or oranges), the largest inscribed 'Orange Boven'. He says: "We'll try what Dutch Drops will do!" By the tub (right) kneels a Spanish don, wearing slashed tunic and breeches, with cloak and ruff; he applies a plaster to Napoleon's back inscribed 'Spanish Flies' [cantharides or blister-beetles, see British Museum Satires No. 11016], and grins broadly, saying, "Here is a Plaster of Spanish flies for his - ." Behind him stands the Cossack, piercing Napoleon's left arm with his long spear, making a fountain of blood spurt into a bowl, inscribed 'Crown Bowl', held by Bernadotte, the Crown Prince of Sweden. Bernadotte wears an absurd powdered wig with queue perched on his own hair which is in a small pigtail. On the wig is poised a cocked hat. He says: "I think my Crown Razors have shaved his Crown pretty close." From his belt hangs an open razor, the blade inscribed 'Best Crown Steel'. Like Alexander, he wears uniform with jack-boots. The tub stands upon flames inscribed 'Moscow' from which emerge the towers and buildings of the city, see No. 12049. Napoleon frantically flourishes above the water one thin leg in a huge jack-boot with a giant spur. He exclaims: "Hence with your Medecines--they but drive me Mad-- Curse on your Dutch Drops your Leipsic Blister [see British Museum Satires No. 12093, &c.] & your Spanish flies they have fretted me to what I am D--n your Cossack Lancets They have drained my veins and rendered me poor & vulnerable indeed!--Oh! how I am fallen--But I will still struggle--I will still be great--Myriads of Frenchmen still shall uphold the glory of my Name the Granduer [sic] of my Throne & write my disgrace in the hearts of ye--ye Wretched creatures of English Gold!" On the extreme right a Frenchman wearing a bonnet rouge looks in through a window, much perturbed. He says: "By gar de grande Bounaparte get into de hot water at last, he no like his Doctors--by gar he say they be no doctors, but de journeymen of dat great Doctor John Bull." Behind Alexander and on the extreme left is the 'Allied Medecine Chest'. It contains a jar of 'Surgical Instruments' bristling with cutting and slashing weapons, axes, bayonets, sword, &c., with a jagged saw; a pile of 'snow balls' [cf. British Museum Satires No. 11917, &c.], and a jar of 'Cossack Leeches'."--British Museum online catalogue

"The daughter of Count Platoff stands full face, erect, dashing, and alluring, on a snowy mound. Her right hand supports a spear from which floats a banner inscribed: 'I General Count Platoff. promise to give my Daughter in Marriage and 2000 Rubles - to any Cossack, Russian, Prusian, German, Sweede, Turk, John Bull, Sauny Bull Paddy Bull or any other Bull, who shall bring Me the Head of Little Bony dead or a live.' She wears fur-trimmed cap with a long hussar-bag, long high-waisted fur-bordered pelisse, with a cape, fur-trimmed boots, and large ear-rings. The words 'Hih "ho" for a Husband' issue from closed and smiling lips. With her left hand she points behind her to the right and to the little figure of Napoleon on skates, wearing a large plumed bicorne, and brandishing his sabre; he deserts his snow-bound army, saying, "O" ho" bygare I had best be Off." He strides past the heads of soldiers emerging from snow, together with bayonets, and a French flag; behind him the French army marches in close ranks, with one eagle and one flag. On the left is another column of tiny soldiers indicated by heads, bayonets, an eagle, and flags. In the clouds, airborne as in No. 11992 (British Museum catalogue), are two bands of galloping Cossacks, one (right) seems about to swoop down on Napoleon. Heavy clouds frame slanting rays which make a background for Platoff's daughter. At her feet are two money--bags both inscribed '1,000 Rubles', which disgorge coins. Behind them a kneeling Cupid aims his bow towards the 'cloud of Cossacks' on the left."--British Museum catalogue

Abstract:
"The representatives of six of the Allies, the most prominent being John Bull, stand on a bluff (left) tugging at a rope by which they pull a row of seven uniform Dutch men-of-war from the opposite coast. The ships are small, their sails are inflated by a favourable wind; they fly Dutch flags, one inscribed 'Texell Fleet'; John Bull, a stout 'cit', pulls side by side with a Spaniard in slashed tunic, ruff, and feathered hat. Behind this pair a Russian wearing a fur hood steadies the rope. A Prussian Death's Head Hussar hauls at the end of the rope, his back to the sea, but looking over his shoulder. Beside him is an Austrian officer, while a Portuguese or Sicilian waves a feathered cap. On the extreme right, behind the Dutch fleet, are two little figures making frantic gestures: Napoleon waving his sword exclaims: "Oh Brother Joe--I'm all Fire, My Passion eats me up Such unlooked for Storms of ills fall on me It beats down all my cunning, I cannot bear it My ears are fill'd with Noise my Eyes grow dim And feeble shakings seize every Limb." Joseph stands behind, his crown at his feet, saying: "Oh Brother Nap Brother Nap we shant be left with half a Crown apiece [see British Museum Satires No. 12068]." The ships are filled with Dutch sailors; others are on the shore (right) pushing at the stern of the nearest ship in order to launch her. This partly obscures the others, which are in line, diminishing in perspective. A ship's boat rows towards the horizon. A large sun (right), irradiated and inscribed 'Sunset of Tyranny', sinks into the sea. Between it and the coast (left) is a row of five men-of-war at anchor, flying the flags of the Allies, their poops in a line. The ship on the right, nearest Holland, flies a Russian flag, the next, with the highest masts, flies British flags. In the foreground (left), lying at the base of the bluff on which the Allies stand, are two casks inscribed 'Real Hollands Best Double Proof' and 'Genuine Spirit Neat as Imported'."--British Museum online catalogue

Screaming servants rush in from the right, headed by two footmen; one holds up a table-cloth to fling over her head, but is hampered by his companion, a negro, who flings the liquid contents of a (?) large flowerpot in her face, but stands on the cloth. A fat cook follows; a pretty young woman kneels on the ground throwing up her arms, a dog howls. Four older servants look through the doorway. Two candles, the cause of the disaster, blaze on the chimneypiece where a clock shows that it is 2.25."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

Abstract:
"Plate from the 'Satirist', xiii. 193. In the text the title continues '. . ., "alias" War'. A satire on the Congress of Prague. Four sovereigns, completely unlike the men in question, in conference. The Tsar sits behind a small rectangular table on which are displayed implements of war in miniature: cannon, pyramids of cannon-balls, muskets, swords, drums, &c., and flags on one of which are fleurs-de-lis. On the left stand the King of Prussia and the Emperor of Austria, on the right is Napoleon. Alexander extends his hands rhetorically, turning to the left, with a puckered scowl, to say to the two Germans: "Come Gentlemen see first if you can agree--if not we'll all fight!" He has quasi-Kalmuck features, and wears an odd-shaped crown, an ermine-bordered robe, with a jewelled necklace and a Greek cross. Frederick William III, on the extreme left, clutches the hilt of his sword and puts his left hand to his cocked hat as if ready to doff it, he turns to Francis I, towards whom a label issues from his mouth: "I am ready to treat or to fight"; a second label floats to the left, inscribed 'Infernal Scoundrel'. Francis I, looking distracted, stands directed to the right, legs apart, and in his left hand is his sabre, the blade of which curves over the Tsar's head, but both hands touch his crown, and he says: "I will wear an independant Crown." He wears hussar uniform, cloak, sash, and elaborately embroidered tunic and pantaloons. Napoleon, tall and burly, with heavy whisker and aquiline profile, wears a plumed bicorne with tricolour cockade and very tattered uniform leaving his legs almost bare, with one dilapidated jack-boot and one damaged stocking; he has a long sword. He stands aggressively with arms dramatically extended, saying, "My Friends! all we wish is Peace." A chain is attached to each great toe, which is fastened to the necks of two miserable princes, tiny figures standing between his outstretched legs. One (left), Charles IV of Spain, wearing a crown and robe, grotesquely knock-kneed and despairing, stands full-face. The other, wearing a crown with uniform and sword, stoops in profile, looking up abjectly at Napoleon's legs. On the extreme right, in the middle distance, is a tall Spanish don, much emaciated, wrapped in a cloak. He looks down with folded arms at a fat British officer beside him, who says: "I ll countenance Austria into our interests." The Spaniard: "I'll be damned if I go to meet a Frenchman in Prague, while there is a Frenchman to meet in Spain!!!" Behind them in the background a tiny Napoleon, wearing a grotesque crown and holding a sword, marches downhill at the head of his soldiers carrying flags; he has a melancholy expression and approaches the edge of a precipitous descent."--British Museum online catalogue

"A cavernously dark interior, despite a strong light from a wide doorway and open window in the wall which forms a background. Five Indian servants, of whom two may be women, are employed in various operations; three squat on the floor on mats or low stools, a fourth holding a slab or brick like that in No. 12164, rises in angry controversy with a seated man (left). Their dress ranges from a tunic and trousers with a turban to a loin-cloth. A steward or butler wearing a turban stands in the doorway, holding a bowl. On the right is a large stove on which pots of various sizes are cooking over five small charcoal fires on the surface of the stove. Above, in deep shadow, hang large hams."--British Museum online catalogue
