Description

There's a lot of symbolism stuffed into a turkey.
Brains in a Basket. Unwrapped turkeys piled up in a shopping cart are symbolic of a family exposed brains. This Pop Art Illustration brilliantly depicts Sigmund Freud holding a baby with a family in the parking lot of a shopping center in the suburbs. Clearly, the artist is referring to a psychologist unwrapping and consuming a family's brains.
Deftly painted and composed by the great Scottish American artist Wilson McLean . He has done many covers for Time Magazine, Look, Sports Illustrated and Playboy. McLean has won nine silver and four gold medals over the years at the Society of Illustrators.

Wilson McLean, Scottish-American, b. 1937
