Hi Martin,

You sent this message under another thread but I've been thinking about this 
image ever since. I found the artist is Lucas Van Leyden and painted in the 
1500's, but I'm wondering what is going on. Looks like a town or fort is being 
bombarded but the man in the foreground doesn't seem to notice. In fact he seem 
to be doing well except the two women are his daughters? The caption from 
wikipedia reads, Lot and his daughters, or is the title incorrect? What is this 
painting about? Can't be about swiping meteorites. :)

Carl
