So apparently there was a cult of people who would eat peyote and stare at this painting for hours.
Very creepy and psychedelic.
Contains a lot of phallic imagery/symbology, life/death/children, the tree of life/knowledge. Very trippy but also kinda creepy.
I can see quite a few phallic like objects... a toddler peeing on what looks like a dead fetus... aaaaand that's enough for me.
