. In the center of the image, a large-breasted woman, dressed in a nun's veil, holds a cleaver and looks at a fish on a table. This woman symbolizes the Church and the fish represents Christ. The image raises questions about how the institution has distorted Christ's love, encouraging hatred and discrimination.

Around the woman, eleven naked female figures, whose transparent bodies reveal their skeletons. Their heads are represented as puppets, suggesting manipulation and the absence of free will. One of the figures holds a skull, symbolizing the presence of death.

To the right of the nun, a snake in the form of a necklace toasts the scene while the other figures ignore it, busy with their own lives. This dichotomy between evil and the unbridled quest for power and lust makes us reflect on the temptations and corruptions that accompany this quest.

Rats and cockroaches crawl on the table, among the rotten fruits, contrasting with the luxury objects. This represents the moral decadence and degeneration caused by the incessant search for material pleasures. The presence of watches, perfumes, golf balls, silver candelabra, boxes of rotten caviar with worms, rolls of toilet paper as if they were dollars, vases with dead flowers and torture objects used by medieval Christian sadists to torture women, in addition to the bottles of poison next to the Bible and the Divine Comedy, suggests the need to reflect on abstinence from pleasure or perversion in the pursuit of wealth and pleasures.

This stimulating visual composition leads us to reflect on the dark aspects of institutionalized religion, human duality and the temptation of power and material wealth. It reminds us of the importance of critically examining our beliefs and values, of questioning the validity and integrity of religious institutions, and of the unbridled pursuit of worldly pleasures. It invites us to a deep philosophical introspection about human nature and the ethical and moral challenges we face in our quest for meaning and fulfillment.
