Freedom (BM 1876,1014.33) - Public domain portrait engraving
Summary
The interior of a smithy. Four hearty fellows are hard at work; one (right) at a bench, another at the furnace (left), while in the background two work together at an anvil. On the left a stout citizen wearing a hat stands in profile to the left, his mouth wide open, apparently singing:
'Rule Britannia Britannia rules the waves
Britons never shall be Slaves.' (Engraved below the title.) 17 November 1794
