»Italienische Reise« is a personal illustrative view on todays traveling culture. It´s based on the correspondent book from Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, who traveled about italy from 1786-1788. In July of 2016 I decided to visit some of his destinations (6 cities in 7 days) myself in order to document my impressions of touristic behavior. The result is an authentic travelogue consisting of contemporary illustrations mixed with personal diary notes and fragments of Goethes original text.
