Description |
Français : ou, Le Départ du Grand Cyrus
English: A medallion bordered in gold represents the fall and exile of Napoleon, who is shown as a man with a serpent's tail, being chased by hunting dogs toward the British ship and island of Helena in the distance. All the symbols of his power are falling away from him: his emperor's cloak, his crowns, his scythe. The dog leaning against his right leg wears a Jacobin bonnet, to show that even the revolutionaries are hunting him; the dog on the left wears a military uniform. One dog holds a document branding him an outlaw, and another is in the midst of writing a satirical play called "Satyr."
