The mythological figure Hermes/Mercury, as “Commerce,” stands atop a cliff, extending his arm to “Peace” standing on a cliff opposite, with the Nicaragua Canal separating them. On the cliff below Hermes, Uncle Sam stands on a ladder supported by John Bull. Uncle Sam is placing a sign that states, “Notice No Fighting on These Premises.” Another man labeled “Jingo” is pulling on the tails of Uncle Sam’s coat.
