The image is a black and white photograph of a large cannon on a grassy field. The cannon is in the center of the image and appears to be in the process of firing. It has a long, cylindrical body with a pointed tip and a handle on the right side. The body of the cannon is covered in dust and there is a large cloud of smoke rising from it. The smoke is billowing up into the air, creating a hazy effect. In the background, there are trees and bushes, suggesting that the photo was taken in a wooded area. The photograph appears to have been taken during the early 20th century.
