The cartoon depicts Russian President Vladimir Putin seated inside an open coffin repurposed as a dining table. He eats from a plate holding a bone while extending a middle finger. A wilting flower stands in a vase on the coffin lid, and a pool of blood spreads from beneath the casket.

The visual ties the ongoing conflict directly to mounting casualties and the personal isolation of the Russian leader.
