Britannia stands holding the staff and cap of liberty, addressing Mars and Neptune, who are representatives of Britain. At her side is the British Lion who paws at a heap of feathers representing sections of the colonies, and which have obviously just come off a cock who is trying to make his get-away. Mars is cutting from the robes of France her North America provinces, and Neptune has likewise seized her robe and is threatening North America (an Indian) with his trident. The dejected figures of France stand to one side. In the background are sailors dancing round a column surmounted with the royal arms marked with the fleets triumphs.
