Print showing 'The Upshot of the Invasion, or Bony in a fair way for Davey's Locker (caricature)'. Technique includes roulette work.

A crudely executed allegory of the Anglo-French conflict and the feared French invasion of Britain, representing them simply as a single naval engagement between the respective ships of state. To the right, the French ship, the ‘Bonaparte’, its tricolour shot through and drooping over the stern, is fired upon and boarded by British sailors. In contrast, the unscathed British ship to the left has as its figurehead the sea god Neptune carrying his trident, signifying dominion of the seas. Meanwhile, Napoleon at the centre falls into the water, looking back angrily over his shoulder at the British vessel. Attacked by British sailors, he is grabbed round the leg by a sea monster, pulling him to the ‘Davey’s Locker’ of the title.

This print served as the frontispiece to ‘The Anti-Gallican’, a collection of ‘papers, tracts, speeches poems and songs … published on the threatened Invasion’.
