Standing tall against the backdrop of an expansive landscape, this iconic symbol of England's royalty exudes both power and grace. The composition is strikingly framed, emphasizing the grandeur of the statue as well as highlighting the intricate details being attended to by these anonymous figures. One man carefully balances himself on a ladder while delicately wiping away years of dirt and grime from Boadicea's regal features. His companion stands nearby, holding various tools necessary for their task.
