The artist must have visited Famagusta and was impressed by its long golden beaches lined with hotels. The picture focuses on the last hotel on the town’s long beach called Constantia after the Byzantine town. Her work has an almost ghost-like effect; the lines are rather shaky but vivid colours bring it to life.
