The War of the Worlds: Attack on Rio de Janeiro

Sketches inspired by Henrique Alvim Correa's original illustrations for the 1906 edition of "War of the Worlds", approved by H. G. Wells himself. The fun here is to create scenes of a Martian attack on Rio de Janeiro in the early 20th Century, based on photos of the old Rio by Augusto Malta, Marc Ferrez and other photographers.
