Boneys journey to London or the reason why he is so long in comeing i,e, because he travels like a snail with his house at his back

Two rows of gaunt soldiers pull Napoleon and his small house from the left to the right of the image. The soldiers, who are burdened with heavy knapsacks and their weapons, throw their weight into their duty. A tall and cruel officer drives the team of soldiers forward with a large knotted whip. In contrast to the shabby, threadbare clothing and worn out shoes of the soldiers, the officer's uniform is elegant and immaculate. Napoleon is depicted in profile and leans out of a large window cut under the eave at the side of the house. Although the house is itself quite simple, Napoleon's window is ornamented with fluted columns and is topped by a bonnet rouge. Underneath the ledge, a guillotine is represented, over which flies a banner labeled "Liberté Toute Entière." Napoleon wears a dress uniform and gestures grandly towards the soldiers demanding that their driver hurry them along. A door and another window are located on the broad side of the house. The door closest to Napoleon's window is topped by a plaque that reads "Grande Chambre for receive de Petitions from de Englishmen." At the door's left, a plain window is cut into the wall. A cook gripping a knife leans out from this window and points his nose in the direction the house is headed. Above his window a plaque is inscribed "Cuisine for roast de English Beef ma Foi." Additionally, bunches of garlic or onions and a frog can be seen hanging from the rafters of the kitchen and are labeled "To season de Beef." The sheet has darkened with age. Also shows signs of water damage and staining. In some areas, along creases, the sheet coloring has been rubbed from the image.
