Description:

destroyed This was a very ugly painting, so I destroyed it. The People's Republic of Poland was a preserve of drunkards. Everybody kept drinking day by day. In shops there was mostly vodka and vinegar. And most people distilled bootleg alcohol at home or even at work. You bought potatoes or grain and sugar. The recipe was easy and the alcohol strong and effective. (E.D.)
