This is a drawing of two cartoonish figures in a satirical setting. The first figure is labeled as part of the "Confédération Germanique" and appears as a small, troll-like character wearing a loose garment, standing with a distressed expression and pointing. The second figure is much larger, seated in a chair, wearing a spiked helmet, and has a stern, defiant demeanor. The image is executed in a detailed, linear style typical of political caricatures of the 19th century. The phrase below the image adds another layer of satirical commentary.
