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.
