At the tip of the scythe, German soldiers, Turks and others toy with a bomb marked WAR. Furniss' strong points did not include figure drawing.”--“Coming events cast their shadows before them some initial effects indicating the nature of an event may be felt before it takes place;’ saying recorded from the early 19th centuryI have other hard-to-find original Punch cartoon illustrations for sale; combine orders with no extra shipping fees.Punch, a magazine of humor and satire, ran from 1841-2002.
