This caricature plays on the double meaning of 'La Grue', either a crane or a woman of loose morals. In 1869 the Empress visited Suez for the opening of the canal. Princess Mathilde said that the journey was purely an 'opportunity to make eyes at some Eastern prince from her steamboat'.\r\n\r\nNapoleon III characterised as cowardly and ferocious.\r\n\r\nThe Prince Imperial was the only child of the Emperor and Empress.
