The artwork illustrates a scene from Homer’s Odyssey, showing the Greek hero Ulysses (Odysseus) escaping the Cyclops Polyphemus after blinding him. The sides of the tin feature additional references to Turner’s iconic painting, The Fighting Temeraire, known for its portrayal of a majestic warship being towed into retirement.
