Excerpt from George Cruikshank
The artist who drew Napoleon week by week, with all the vulgar insolence which only a great man's contemporaries can display towards him, was the same who, half a cen tury after the Emperor's death, produced a conception of the Leader of the Parisian Blood Red Republic of 1870. The artist who, in the last year of the reign of George the Third, depicted Thistlewood's lair in Cato Street, drew also, as though with a mother's tender care, almost every pane in that glass palace which the trees Of Hyde Park inhabited in 1851.
