Drawn in October 1970 by Paul Thek, on his favourite island Ponza before the Italian coast between Rome and Naples. The island was a refuge for Paul Thek, a place he loved and visited frequently. In a letter in 1979 to Frans Deckwitz, a Dutch artist friend, he wrote that he would prefer to spend the rest of his life on Ponza and die there.
