Le poète allemand Heinrich Heine, qui s’était installé à Paris en 1831, déclara à plusieurs reprises son soutien à une expression artistique engagée et subjective, mais cela ne l’empêcha pas d’exprimer avec véhémence son aversion pour les satires publiées dans La Caricature, qui représentaient le « roi-citoyen », Louis-Philippe, sous la forme d’une poire. Cependant, les comptes rendus des affaires de la France envoyés par Heine à la presse allemande présentent bien des analogies avec les caricatures apparemment dédaignées. Il s’en servit pour renforcer ses propres critiques politiques, mais également en soutien à ses propres caricatures verbales du monarque et de son cabinet. Après avoir démontré que Heine partage les mêmes cibles et les mêmes procédés que les caricaturistes d’alors, nous analyserons les stratégies graphiques et verbales et les techniques utilisées pour éviter la censure de la presse.
