One Blow from His Ax
All Resolutions
Brisquet knocked the wolf over dead with one blow from his ax.
Description:
In a winter landscape, a man is about to strike a wolf with his ax while his two daughters cling to him and his dog lies dead in the snow.
The caption reads in the original French: Brisquet d’un coup de sa bonne hache renversa le loup roide mort.
