Three paintings on the wall behind are titled, 'Tombeau de Napoleon', 'Tarquin le Superbe' and 'Denis Tyran de Syracuse'. A plate from 'Album pour Rire' or, 'Album for Laughs', published by French printers Hautcoeur-Martinet, 1832. The plates for 'Album pour Rire' were issued separately and never collected into and sold as a single volume.
