Suicide Tree

In Dante's Inferno, the souls of suicides are trapped in the bodies of trees so that they can do no more unfortunate mischief to their flesh.

This is a double image. If you look closely, you can see the rope around the neck, the hands held high above the head, the twisted torso and legs, the face with its two eyes in the negative space above the rope.
