Description

Napoleon Bonaparte meets Daniel Lambert in this caricature, which is alternately titled John Bull in Moderate Condition.

  • Napoleon: "I contemplate this Wonder of the World, and regret that all my Conquered Domains cannot match this Man. Pray, Sir, are you not a descendant of the great Joss of China?"
  • Lambert: "No Sir, I am a true born Englishman, from the County of Leicester. A quiet mind, and good Constitution, nourished by the free Air of Great Britain, makes every Englishman thrive."
The engraving is by Knight.
