Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Napoleon in Caricature, Vol. 1 of 2: 1795-1821 The subject of Napoleon in Caricature, instructive, interesting, and practically inexhaustible as it unquestionably is, has never yet been dealt with either as a whole or from an international point of view. There is no work in existence entirely devoted either to the history or the description of the numerous satiric prints concerning Napoleon Bonaparte which appeared in France, Germany, Russia, Italy, Spain, Holland, Switzerland, and Scandinavia between 1795 and 1821. Such printed information as does exist consists of isolated chapters in books like Champfleury´s Histoire de la Caricature; Dayot´s Napoleon, Le Musée de la Caricature en France (1838); Fuchs´s Die Karikatur der europaischen Volker; John Grand-Cartaret´s Les Mæurs et La Caricature en Allemagne, en Autriche, en Suisse, and Les Mæurs et La Caricature en France; Hermann´s Die deutsche Karikatur; and Schulze´s Die Franzosenzeit in deutschen landen (1806-1815). In most cases the story of the pictorical satire relating to Bonaparte as General, Consul, Emperor, and Exile, is confined to one or two chapters wedged in somewhat clumsily between those dealing with the Revolution, and the apparently more attractive topics of the ridicule which killed Charles X., and the pearfaces which did so much to discredit Louis Philippe and pave the way for the Second Empire.
