Thieves robbing ready furnished lodgings, scene Madrid
Striding toward a "Lake of Blood," Joseph Bonaparte's face is etched with a worried expression echoed by his speech; "Where shall I fly; how shall I cross that Lake! Good Mr. Devil, save me." He is represented in profile and appears immune to the scene of violence and plunder that erupts all around him. While Joseph's crown falls from his head, he attempts to pull a blanket--labeled "Spanish Wool and Sundries taken from the Palace--late my Lodgings"--tighter across his shoulders. In addition, he carries a mitered crown tied to his shoulder and, from his waist, a golden crucifix and pouch labeled "Sly Bag" are obvious. Several winged demons circle around the image. One in particular, a large she-demon, addresses Joseph offering him a pistol or the gallows, and orders "Take your choice SON." Other demons offer poisonous cups, and those titled "Brethren" rain arrows down on Joseph's troops. Immediately behind Joseph, a Spanish officer falls, wounded, to the ground. Also, at the right border of the image, a woman and a child lie dead on the ground. These are the victims of the French troops whose musket fire is leveled at the Spanish citizens arriving to protect their church treasures from the plundering army. French troops carrying sacks of gold, church plate, dollars and other goods, march along the horizon line. Behind them, the "Reward of Merit," a large wooden gallows, acts as a sign post directing them on towards France on the "Road to Ruin."

Théologie à la Turque. - the pale of the Church of Mahomet
This print is one of a series Gillray published satirizing the French campaign in Egypt. In this image a Frenchman is carried by two Turks towards a large, menacing pike. Another Turkish figure stands behind the pike and gestures with his right hand towards the tip of the stake. In the background, a French soldier watches the scene from over his shoulder. This soldier rubs his backside with one hand while he places a turban on his head. His hat, exactly like the one worn by the next victim, is abandoned on the ground. His actions suggest that either he has just been "baptised" by the Turkish figures, or he is anticipating the execution of the Frenchman by impalement. The Frenchman holds a scroll of papers labeled "Le Prophet Demasque" in his left hand, and a book titled "L'Imposture de Mahomet" in his right. He is carried upright by one figure, who grasps his legs and the other who holds him under his arms. Following this small procession, a religious man reads from a book inscribed in capital letters "AL-KO-RAN." The sheet has been folded at the outer borders and has some stains and small, repaired tears. This print is one of a series Gillray published satirizing the French campaign in Egypt.
