The painting resembles a skewed version of \"The Last Supper\" with Frida playing the role of Christ at the center of the table.

She is surrounded by an eclectic assortment of characters: Cristina's two children, a large papier-mâché Judas, a skeleton, a pre-Columbian sculpture and her pet fawn Granizo.

The Judas, the skeleton and the pre-Columbian idol are three of the four characters in her earlier painting \"The Four Inhabitants of Mexico City\", which has also been shared here.

The oversized Judas on Frida's right, dressed in blue overalls, represents Diego who betrayed her when he had an affair with her younger sister Cristina.

The figure has his hands on the table as did the Judas that betrayed Christ.

This gesture may be symbolizing Luke's words at the Last Supper: \"…but behold the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on the table (Luke, 22:21).

Despite the betrayal, Frida allows the Juda (Diego) to protectively place his arm around her.

To her left, the skeleton is holding a strand of Frida's hair…perhaps she is flirting with death.

The pre-Columbian sculpture is intertwined with Kahlo, sharing the same arm symbolizing her connection to her Mexican roots.

The threatening characters seem to be between the painter and the innocent figures of the children and the fawn, making them unreachable.
