About "cannons"

About the artwork

? Cast iron guns: A blast from the past ?
These impressive cast-iron cannons take us back to a time when they symbolised the power and innovation of military technology. Here are some interesting facts:

Historical Background
Cast iron cannons were developed and popular in the 16th century thanks to their lower cost compared to bronze cannons. They were essential for ships and forts.

The Netherlands played an important role in the production of these cannons, especially during the Golden Age, when they were used to protect trade routes.

Technical Details
These cannons fired heavy iron bullets meant to breach walls or sink enemy ships.

The firing caused tremendous recoil, requiring sturdy bases and reinforced walls.

Fun Facts
Many cannons were decorated with royal symbols or inscriptions, giving them a unique historical character.

The angle of the shot was adjusted with a wedge called a "quoin," which achieved precision.

Legacy
Cannons forever changed the way war was fought, both on land and at sea. Today, they remind us of history and technological advances.
