Description |
English: Near the end of Napoleon's reign, he was often identified with the Devil. Napoleon is perched on the shoulders of the Devil, whose tail has the form of a snake with its teeth into Napoleon's arm. Napoleon is crying, perhaps from the pain of the snakebite or perhaps at the thought of his imminent plunge into the fires of Hell.
