    This image screams “co-opted” at me. I like how the capitalist figure isn’t wearing clothes and just carrying bags of money (which also, oddly, made me think of hearts).

    Can you tell me more about the piece of music that serves as the background?

    Haha. I like this piece. It looks playful in an apocalyptic kind of way - he’s happy selling everything he has, even the clothes of his back. The musical piece in the background goes well with the image in front. Lots of notes at the extremes: both high-pitched and low-pitched tones. I think the title means “The Cigar”?
