Fox, Charles James, 1749-1806. and Cromwell, Oliver, 1599-1658.
Charles Fox, dressed as Cromwell, paints the execution of Charles I, using royal crown and sceptre as artist's tools. Above the canvas hangs a painting showing a fox, with the Liberty cap on a stick, presenting a male figure of America with a sheet of paper inscribed, "Independence." Behind Fox stands the angry female figure of Justice, her blindfold removed, a sword inscribed, "justice," in her right hand. In the left hand she holds a pair of scales of which the one filled with "loyalty" outweighs the one holding a fox. On the floor lies an open volume entitled, "Patriotism by C. Cromwell," propped on the hilt of a sword labeled, "Commonwealth."

Charles Fox, with a fox's body, speaks to his supporters, shown as geese with human heads who crowd the windows of the King's Arms Tavern and the street below. At the top of the building, Fox's arms are supported by Burke and Lord North, each with a fox's body. Among the geese are the Prince of Wales and Mrs. Robinson in the upper right window, Sam House, shouting, "Huzza," in the bottom central window, and Jeffery Dunstan, the popular 'mayor of Garrett,' standing on the roof of a coach driven by the Earl of Surrey who stands on its box. The coach and its procession converge with a procession led by a goose carrying a standard with Cromwell's portrait signed, "Fox for ever," and the Cap of Liberty on its pole
