| Priskribo |
English: Satire on the French reactions to the disasters of the year 1759 (i.e., the British annus mirabilis). Details of the composition are described in a key below in both French and English: 1. Flat-bottomed boats (intended for invasion) to be sold; 2. soldiers to let (they march away from Calais gate); 3. a minister hanging from a cross; 4. a general being broken on the wheel (two monks watching the torture say, "It is thy just reward"); 5. the spirit of France rising from the earth holding "Carte Blanch for the English"; 6. Joan of Arc also rising from the earth ("Thy Good fortune came by a Girl"); 7. Madame de Pompadour ("thy Misfortunes comes by a Wh[or]e"; Mercury flies above announcing the taking of Quebec by the English on 18th September; a man bowing low in the foreground asks mercy for the prisoners in England and Hanover. 1759

Stephens notes that the subject is based on a French pasquinade: "Batteaux plats a vendre / Soldats a louer / Ministre a pendre, / Generaux a rouer / O France! le Sex Femelle, / Fit toujours ton destinee / Ton bonheur vint d'une Pucelle / Ton malheur vient d'une Catin" |

Permesiloj:
This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.  | ||||
