Description
  • This is a political caricature related to the Franco-Prussian War of 1870 or the Paris Commune of 1871. Note in pencil: Lyon, Bernasconi. Caption: "D'un coté le stupide Lebœuf, de l'autre l'âne Rossard, voila les deux parrains qui le conduisent au baptême du feu. Malgré sa confiance et celle de son papa en ces illustres personnages, Badinguet semblerait vouloir marcher à reculons." Caption (English translation): "On one side, the stupid Leboeuf, on the other, the fool Rossard, these are the two godfathers that led him to the baptism of fire.
