A monument to Sir Charles James Fox, sculpted by Sir Richard Westmacott. Standing in the west end of the nave of Westminster Abbey, it shows Charles Fox lying on a bed, his head and shoulders supported by a figure representing Liberty. At his feet kneels a slave and a figure of Peace. His name and dates are carved into the base.
