Period political cartoons can be an entertaining way of making history approachable. Napoleon never actually invaded the United Kingdom, but during Napoleon's era the British public had serious concerns that he might. Caricature projects a swift end to the invasion, if it were tried.

If a high resolution digitization of the original ever becomes available we can delist/replace. We promote B&W etching reproductions of color paintings all the time, when that's the best we can get. DurovaCharge!15:53, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
But according to the LoC, this is a black-and-white scan of the original colour engraving. [1]. It's thus highly misleading, and represents no real version of the work. Shoemaker's Holiday (talk) 16:45, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
There's nothing misleading; it's the best version available. Still has excellent ev, and if something better becomes available of course we'll trade up. DurovaCharge!17:39, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose, per Shoemaker's Holiday; if the original is in color, it seems disingenuous to feature a black and white scan. That's a different situation from when we feature engravings based on paintings, since those are presented as engravings, not as monochrome line paintings.--ragesoss (talk) 19:25, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
