Mother and child

Early evening light caught this cow with her calf  and it reminded me of Damien Hirst’s iconic image: Mother and Child.
 
What does it all mean? Check out this explanation from the Freud Museum.
 
The images do not do justice to the actual work, where Hirst cut the cow and calf in half then displayed them in formaldehyde glass cases.
 
I have seen the work on  several occasions and it never ceases to shock/amaze me.
