Satirical political cartoon of Napoleon the Great as the ever-shining pole star. Above him, the Devil flanked by two mottoes, Heart of a Tyrant and Vulture, and text surrounding his snake-encircled head listing his most contentious deeds. After an 1813 print by Thomas Rowlandson using elements of an earlier ingratiating work by Alexandre Tardieu.
