Quick fire extinguisher in Paris
A second sketch will be made for this item.

Description:
A man in a helmet takes an extinguisher with both hands to put out a fire. The work is exhausting and he is sweating. Despite his best efforts, a few drops of water trickle out of the extinguisher.
In front of him, a relaxed woman smoking a cigarette is holding a fire extinguisher in one hand, spraying lots of water. Her fire is already half out.
