Soon every day's activities are considered from your own point of view, and even on holidays you can't stay away from routine obsessions. The meteorologist will keep searching the sky, and the geologist the earth. And it is the same for the physician." So Ungerer, who takes in vacation vistas with an artist's eye for perspective, drew some impressions (see cuts) of physicians who cannot quite get away from it all, even when...
