About this work
Satirical print on the (non-existent) Committee of French Requisitions, 1795. Members of the committee seize money and goods from the population. In the center, the French general François Joseph Léfebvre pulls the wig off a man's head. On the ground lies a list of all seized goods. In the background, a covered wagon full of requisitions, including the Natural History Cabinet of the stadtholder.
