Title
Français : La Fin Du Monde
Description
English: The illustrator proposes two versions of the extinction of the human race: death and the refusal to reproduce. At the left, you see Napoleon and some of his victims, his feet stained with their blood. He carries various instruments of death and destruction. His banner makes his intentions clear. On the right, you see Cambaceres (second consul under Napoleon and widely rumored to have been homosexual), turning his back on three young ladies dressed in white.
