Les Français croquès par eux-mêmes: Vicomte, vous êtes bien laid comme ca!,,,Respect au soldat citoyen, mes dames...Citoyen, soldat, l'un ne vous va pas mieux que l'autre, mon cher!

The image depicts a black-and-white drawing of a man and woman standing on a street corner. The woman wears a dark dress with a white ruffled underskirt and a veil covering her head and shoulders. She faces a man dressed in a military-style uniform with a tall hat adorned with a plume. He holds a rifle in one hand and a cigar in the other. The background features a bare tree and a building to the right. A decorative border surrounds the drawing, with French text printed at the top and bottom. The text at the top reads "LES FRANÇAIS CROQUÉS PAR EUX-MÈMES."
