Explanation: The image is a depiction of Archduke Franz Ferdinand being assassinated by a Serbian nationalist; an event which is generally agreed to have been the spark in the powder keg that started World War 1, also known as the Great War.

I wrote this scene in my sci novel The Time Escort. It is an interesting part of history and was fun to research. Would love to have added art ro my novel.
