Abstract:: "In a fantastic procession Napoleon, much burlesqued and very thin, is dragged and pushed to the sea-shore, where (right) a boat manned by the Devil waits to take him to Elba. Round his neck is a rope dragged by two dwarfish and ragged Frenchmen (right): one is a ferocious little Jacobin, wearing a bonnet rouge, shouting "à bas le Tyran"; the other is a royalist, waving a hat in which is an olive-branch and ribbons inscribed 'Vivent les Bourbons', and shouting "Vive Louis XVIII." Napoleon weeps; he is assailed by a shower of missiles including cats and rats; a little demon capers on his head playing a fiddle. His hands are tied behind him and his coat is worn back to front; his feet project through his ragged boots, his great spurs are attached to the front of his leg above the instep. In his coat-pocket is a tiny King of Rome waving a rattle topped by a crown and shouting: "By gar Papa I have made von grand manœuvre in your Pocket!!" The chief motive force is the large 'Allied Broom' [according to Broadley, perhaps describing another state, the inscription is not 'Allied Broom' but 'Abdication'], with which Talleyrand, wearing a long gown and a high surgical shoe on his left foot, pushes Napoleon forward, pointing derisively and grinning delightedly; he says: "There he goes!!!" Behind Talleyrand are a small but elderly drummer and a ragged soldier playing a fife. The former wears in his cap a big white favour, and an inscription: 'Vive Louis XVIII'; the latter wears a laurel branch and a favour inscribed 'Vive Louis' in his bonnet rouge; from his mouth float the words: "He was whip'd & he w drum'd, He w [sic] drum'd out of the Regt, If ever he is a Soldier again, The Devil may be his Sergeant." Next, and on the extreme left, are two women flinging missiles at Napoleon, and shouting "a bas le Tyran--Down with the Tyrant--Vive Louis." On the extreme right is a shouting man holding up a tricolour flag, inscribed 'Vivent les Bourbons', its staff topped by a fleur-de-lis. On the ground (left) are Napoleon's epaulets with the scissors by which they have been cut from his coat, his sash and a small crown, perhaps that of the King of Rome. With these is a document: 'Done at Fontainebleau', across which lies a broken sword. On the horizon (right) is a rocky island from which rise large flames; these surround a tall gibbet with one dangling corpse and one empty noose; a ladder leans against it."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:: "A sequel to British Museum Satires No. 10518, Gillray's 'Tiddy-Doll'. Napoleon, haggard and desperate, wearing tattered uniform without the former apron and sword, walks in profile to the left, carrying on his head a large tray. On this stand three gingerbread kings, burlesqued and mutilated, with two queens, a detached head (crowned), and (right) a pile of imperial emblems: crowns, mitre, sceptre, eagle, flag, &c. On the left a bonnet rouge hangs from a staff. In the middle stands an imperial eagle with a tricolour flag to which is tied a broom showing that the contents of the tray are for sale. Napoleon says (with grimly closed mouth): "Buy my Image! Here's my nice little Gingerbread Emperor & Kings Retail and for Exportation!" Behind him is a tumbledown thatched hovel; over an aperture where more gingerbread figures are displayed is a board: 'Tiddy-Doll Gingerbread Baker. NB Removed from Paris.' Above fly three of the (carrion) birds associated in these prints with Elba. Napoleon walks towards the sea; across the water (in France) tiny figures dance holding hands round a white flag inscribed 'Vivent les Bourbons' and topped by a fleur-de-lis. Behind them is the gable-end of a rustic inn: 'The Kings Head New Revived'. A fiddler capers on the edge of the cliff, watching Napoleon."--British Museum online catalogue and "One of many satires on Napoleon's banishment, see British Museum Satires No. 12229, &c., and on the fall of the Bonaparte kings, the 'Corsican Kinglings' of British Museum Satires No. 10518. The Kings must be Joseph, Louis, and Jérôme, see British Museum Satires No. 12225, the Queens either their wives or Napoleon's sisters; they symbolize the fall of the dynasty and no precise identification is necessary. The other kings of British Museum Satires No. 10518, those who owed their crowns to Napoleon, are absent; they are now his enemies."--Curator's comments, British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:: "A crowded scene, broadly caricatured, on the frozen Thames just above London Bridge, which forms a background, with coaches passing and spectators looking down.

A man's wooden leg plunges through the ice; a fat woman falls on her back on breaking ice, dragging down a man by his pigtail and terrifying and tripping up a fiddler and a raffish man in a furred and braided overcoat with a flamboyant top-hat. Customers (left) buy souvenirs from a printer who inks a block: behind is a press placarded 'The Thames Printing Office--Copper Plate printg done in the Best Style by J water-- Wagtail & Co.' There are two makeshift tents on the left: one placarded 'Gin and Gingerbread Sold here Wholesale'; the other: 'The Nelson'.
