Currently on display in Drury Court after extensive conservation resides the highly theatrical and dramatic painting by , Nicholas Habbe, Britannia Rules the Waves. The 1876 allegorical genre painting draws on the artist’s experience as a theatre designer and incorporates a cast of sea nymphs, nereids and tritons surrounding a chariot as it forges its way across a churning sea. A winged baby riding a dolphin and an anxious-looking whale contribute to the scene.
