“Vienna, the modern Troy”, caricature from the satirical journal Kikeriki of 21 August 1910
Czech immigrants, in appearance and clothing as the stereotypical Wenzel, attempt to cross the Vienna city border with a huge pot of powidl (plum purée, regarded as the classical ingredient of Czech culinary traditions) as a paraphrase of the Homerian gift of the Danae.
