Is this print for sale?
  1. Yes
(Looking at this after checking on a poster - I like to do this...)

This photo appeals on many levels. The cannon of course seems to menace the women. Not to mention the child that turns to face the foe. The animal face on the carriage also threatens the (potential) victims). In addition, the very large cannonball proposes to run them over!

What is their reaction? Well - their hair stands on end ! So would yours!

I would, of course, suggest you print this...
