Title
English: Et l'on revient toujours A ses premiers amours
Description
English: Another expression of Royalist sentiment, this drawing links Napoleon inexorably to the Revolutionaries, with whom he was close when he was a young general and who constituted his most fervent supporters during the Hundred Days. He is shown descending from his imperial throne, stepping into a swamp filled with frogs, and holding a staff topped with the phrygien (Jacobin bonnet). The drawing is based on a German caricature by Leonheart Schlemer. The artist's goal is to convince the bourgeoisie that continued rule by Napoleon would bring a return of the economic chaos suffered during the Terror.
