About this work

Satirical print on Napoleon of 1813, depicting his face constructed from the corpses of his victims, his hat as the Prussian eagle, his epaulet as a grasping hand, his collar as a river of blood, his coat as the battlefield of Europe, and the insignia of the Legion of Honour on his chest as a spiderweb.
