Now, this is interesting! In the summer of 1969, as a small group of 
students and one staff member from the university, we made a walking 
tour through Corsica, particularly the mountainous interior, for fun 
/and/ for the geology. As we did not arrive all at the same time, we had 
a graffiti sign to indicate where we were and/or where we were going. 
That sign was exactly like your drawing except that the wall was the sea 
surface.

I am sure it was not original by itself, but I do not remember where it 
came from...

I note down this author who I did not know.
