The drawing of Punch cartoonist John Tenniel depicts Lady Justice larger than life slaying terror-stricken Indians with the executioner's sword. She is supported by soldiers in the background. The blindfold as one of her typical attributes is missing; the scales of truth and fairness are represented on a shield.
