This mug features a baby penguin design inspired by the Duke of Reichstadt, also known as Napoleon II. The only legitimate son of Napoleon Bonaparte, Napoleon Francois Joseph Charles Bonaparte was born in 1811 and given the title King of Rome. He moved to Vienna with his mother Empress Marie Louise following his father abdication. He served in the Austrian army and was given the title Duke of Reichstadt before dying of tuberculosis in 1832 at the age of 21. This design is based on the Duke of Reichstadt's Austrian army uniform.
The caption is based on René Magritte's iconic painting The Treachery of Images, featuring a pipe with the caption 'Ceci n'est pas un pipe' (This is not a pipe).

Napoleonic Impressions comes out with the best variety of smart, fun designs backed by solid historical knowledge. I wish all museum/historic site gift shops carried products like theirs!

I was so tickled to find a store that had unique items from Napoleonic history! Prices are reasonable and the shipping was incredibly fast - I ordered a Joachim Murat pendant and a Miguel de Alava mug and they came within a week of ordering. They are both excellent quality and would highly recommend!
