shows a part human part easter bunny figure in the fore ground, in the background we see the green hill of calvary/golgotha still with the execution cross's of good friday in the background. the easter bunny has the wounds of crist and an extra fingure, perhaps one to point backwards or towards truth. there is much irony in this picture and reminds us how something as beautifull as perfect submission and resurection joy can be overshadowed by chocolate rabbits on easter sunday morning.

Trivia

  • In an MTV news feature Manson explains the sixth finger: "It's an Easter painting, a holiday item. She has six fingers, which I also had on the cover of Mechanical Animals. It's a reference to Seraphim, a religious reference. Angels were said to have six fingers on one hand."
