Der Deutsche Michel bus zum jahr 1841

1 hand-colored lithograph mounted on board; a sleeping Michel wears a patchwork shirt made up of German states; his mouth is fastened by a padlock. On his right is the Austrian Chancellor, Metternich who is bleeding Michel, whose blood turns to gold. A Russian cossack caresses Michel's head. To his left, John Bull, depicted as a bulldog, is pulling Michel's purse out of his pocket; by him a French soldier cuts off the sleeve of Michel's jacket; above are vignettes of soldiers drilling and marching, a man holding a violin and raising a glass to toast ("Es lebe der deutsche Rhein"), a battlefield scene with a man standing with one leg on another man ("Es lebe der deutsche Kraft"), and a large cannon and gun crew; bust port. of Napoleon with spyglass in clouds. 1 hand-colored lithograph mounted on board; a sleeping Michel wears a patchwork shirt made up of German states; his mouth is fastened by a padlock.
