'Voyages de Gulliver' by Jonathan Swift, translated into French by B H Gausseron and illustrated by Victor Armand Poirson (1859 -1893), was published by A Quantin in Paris. The work is undated but is said to date from 1884. It contains an illustration of Gulliver kneeling before some cocottes.

This illustration is not in the main text but at the top of the index page. It does not therefore seem to be attempting to illustrate any aspect of the story but may be a satirical comment on the ease with which Gulliver is captured by rather underwhelming enemies.

A full copy of the work can be accessed online here.
