"Colony of Texas General Lallemand at Champ d'Asile, 1818" is a historical lithograph created by Charles Étienne Pierre Motte, a French lithographer active in the early 19th century. The artwork depicts a moment in the short-lived history of the Champ d'Asile (Field of Asylum), a settlement established by French Bonapartist exiles in Spanish Texas in 1818. General Charles Lallemand, a former officer in Napoleon's army, led this group of exiles seeking refuge after the fall of Napoleon and the restoration of the Bourbon monarchy in France.

The lithograph serves as a visual record of this unique and ambitious attempt to create a sanctuary for Bonapartists in the New World. It portrays General Lallemand and his fellow settlers in the midst of establishing their colony, surrounded by the untamed wilderness of Texas. The artwork captures the settlers' determination and the harsh realities they faced in an unfamiliar land.

Motte's work is significant for its historical and artistic value, providing insight into the aspirations and struggles of political exiles during a turbulent period in European and American history. The lithograph not only reflects the story of the Champ d'Asile but also exemplifies the use of lithography as a means of documenting and disseminating historical events in the 19th century. The piece is an important cultural artifact that contributes to the understanding of French emigration and the broader narrative of European influence in the early development of Texas.
