Description: Here we see a procession where the Lilliputian Emperor walks through a crowd of kneeling Lilliputians. The Emperor is identified by his elaborate headpiece which has a long train coming out of the top. The Emperor walks towards the gates to the palace, with the crowd lining the walkway towards the gate. The same image appears in both the 1839 and 1843 Krabbe editions.
