Text centred at the bottom (covered by the passe-partout): Despite bloody UNREST IN EGYPT, there are still COURAGEOUS AUSTRIAN TOURISTS who, despite everything, are drawn to the land of the pyramids for their holidays.
With bitter humour and a razor-sharp eye, Manfred Deix caricatures the unwavering Austrian tourist in this watercolour. A collector's item for fans of Deix's unmistakable humour and his sharp-tongued observations of society.
