This image was part of a poster to publicise the first International Agatha Christie Festival which took place in Puerto de la Cruz, Tenerife in 2007. Agatha spent some time in Puerto during her troubled divorce and based the short story 'The Man from the Sea' in the La Paz district of the town.
During the Festival, a bust of Agatha was unveiled by her grandson Mathew Prichard.
