EDITORS COMMENTS
This iconic print captures a pivotal moment in history, as Napoleon Bonaparte and William Pitt the Younger sit down to dinner to carve up the world in 1805. The scene depicts the two powerful leaders greedily slicing into a plumb pudding that symbolizes their insatiable appetite for conquest and control.
Napoleon, with his characteristic cocked hat and intense gaze, appears determined to claim his share of the globe while Pitt, dressed in formal attire, looks on with equal determination. The tension between them is palpable as they each reach for their respective slices of the pudding, representing different parts of the world that they seek to dominate.
The image serves as a satirical commentary on the political events of the time, highlighting both men's ambitions and desires for power. It also reflects Gill Ray's skillful use of humor and wit to convey complex historical themes through visual storytelling.
As we look at this print today, we are reminded of how history is shaped by individuals who wield great influence over global affairs. The Plumb-pudding in danger remains a timeless depiction of human greed and ambition that continues to resonate with audiences around the world.
