Below caption title: New style---No quarter day!
By James Gillray.
A later impression on paper watermarked 1811.
Heading to a letterpress broadside of twenty-nine verses printed in three columns, with the caption title given above; first line: Says Boney, the butcher, to Talley his man.
Print shows the interior of a slaughter-house, with the carcasses of animals suspended from the wall. Through the doorway is seen a rock rising from the sea on which stands a bellowing bull; at the base of the rock is a British fleet. Napoleon, the butcher, with cleaver and knife is restrained by Talleyrand who holds him round the waist, while the head of the Russian bear looks in at the door. In the foreground lies a body from which head, hands, and feet have been chopped; to it is skewered a paper: 'Germanic Body'; the severed hand lies on a paper inscribed 'Hanover'. On the left is a round wicker cage surmounted by the Papal tiara, inscribed: 'From Rome and Not worth Killing'; it contains a fox and other small animals. On the extreme right. is a dog-kennel inscribed 'Prussia' and 'Put up to Fatten'; from it a lean greyhound puts out its head to lap greedily at a trough of 'Consular Whipt Syllabub'. Behind this is the butcher's block, on which lies a cleaver; blood drips from it into a receptacle inscribed 'Treasury'. Behind Napoleon, in a trough inscribed 'Jaffa Cross Breed', are the bodies of six turbaned Muslims; blood gushes from the trough into a tank inscribed 'Glory'. On the wall hang carcasses: a ram ticketed 'True Spanish - Fleec'd'; a bleeding calf's head, a simian creature with a tail labelled 'Native Breed'; an ass, ticketed 'From Switzerland', and a pig 'From Holland'.
