William II, Emperor of Germany, exchanges his coat and helmet for a hat and coat in the style of Napoleon I, Emperor of the French. Bernhard von Bülow stands next to him, also dressed in the style of an early 19th century French aristocrat, holding a cape draped over his right arm. Caption: Valet Von Buelow–Sapristi, Herr Wilhelm! They become you most beautifully!
