  1. What does this piece mean to you? Do you see any symbolism in the images he has put forth in this piece? The naked girls, shy but silent. The Nazi's (obviously the center points of the piece) surrounding the room playing violin, wearing women's underwear..

    I have my theories, but what are yours?
