caricature of actor Albert Dieudonné as Bonaparte from the classic 1927 silent epic 'Napoleon' (directed by Abel Gance). The triptych nature of the picture - with its background of eagle, cannon (with its 'wheel of destiny' motif), Lady Liberty and battlefield - refers to the famous final sequence of the film which is split into three screens, like the French tricolore flag.
