"The Happy Effects Of That Grand Systom Of Shutting Ports Against The English!!" is a satirical print by the renowned British caricaturist George Cruikshank. Created in 1808, this work is a commentary on the economic ramifications of the Continental System, which was an embargo imposed by Napoleon Bonaparte against the United Kingdom during the Napoleonic Wars. The Continental System aimed to destroy Britain's commercial and financial standing by closing European ports to British goods. Cruikshank's illustration humorously depicts the adverse effects of this policy on the French and their allies, rather than on the English, as Napoleon had intended.

In the print, George Cruikshank illustrates various figures representing European nations, including a ragged French soldier and a Dutchman, all suffering from the lack of British goods. The image is rich with visual rhetoric and symbolism, showcasing Cruikshank's skill in political satire and his ability to capture and critique the socio-political issues of his time through art. The work serves as a historical document reflecting the economic strategies and their unintended consequences during one of Europe's most tumultuous periods.

As an artist, George Cruikshank (1792–1878) was one of the most prominent and influential caricaturists of the 19th century, known for his sharp wit and keen observation of contemporary society. His illustrations often addressed social and political subjects, making them accessible and engaging to the public. "The Happy Effects Of That Grand Systom Of Shutting Ports Against The English!!" is a prime example of Cruikshank's contribution to the art of caricature and his role as a commentator on the events of his day. The print remains an important piece of cultural history, offering insight into the economic warfare of the Napoleonic era and the power of visual satire.
