Artist AleXsandro Palombo has created a series of images which imagine well-known cartoon characters such as Marge Simpson, Lois Griffin, Jessica Rabbit and a host of Disney Princesses as breast cancer survivors.

Speaking to The Huffington Post, Palombo said the project was inspired by the death of one of his colleagues with the images released last October to coincide with Breast Cancer Awareness month.

Palombo commented: "You must be very strong to be able to react psychologically and accept the new appearance of your own body. My message is one of hope and courage. I believe that we must also create awareness to young people and teach health education."
