In the foreground, we see the majestic British lion, its paws resting confidently on bags overflowing with money. This symbolizes Britain's dominance in finance and trade at that time. The lion stands proudly against a backdrop of the iconic River Thames, flowing gracefully through the heart of London. St Paul's Cathedral rises majestically in the distance, representing Christianity's influence over this bustling city.

As we gaze upon this historic engraving today, it serves as a reminder of London's rich history and its significance as an economic powerhouse during that era. The print transports us back to a time when religion played an integral role in society and financial prosperity was synonymous with British identity.
