The plaque is composed of a very detailed casting with white metal or spelter that has been cold-painted in muted tones. This advertising plaque for the Royal Trust Company, which we believe is an affiliate of the Royal Bank of Canada depicts an Indigenous Chief and an Indigenous warrior holding up the British crown.
