Le chute du titan moderne

Napoleon falls from his white horse (l.) onto a map of France (r.) that is supported by the branches of a tree and is part of a larger map of Europe. In falling, he lands on the French imperial eagle. The French crown has slipped from his head and is held by both Napoleon and the eagle. A second crown, which has been identified in "Napoleon Im Spiegel" as the Italian crown, has fallen to the ground.
