This very adult take on little red riding hood brings new life to the story, and perhaps a lost meaning. " 'Seeing the wolf' reportedly entered French slang as a euphemism for losing one's virginity." Lawson, M. (2006) Cape Fear, The Guardian, [online] available at http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/2006/sep/27/classics [accessed 2nd November 2012]. So this innocent tale of a girl seeing the wolf in a forest may have a darker origin than most think, perhaps this is what the artist was trying to show?
