Schirmer comments the work: „The woman as a symbol of the universe. The woman giving birth, the mother of origin, surrounded by angels, the saints, the children of the world. Madonna, the woman who embodies strength and suffering, gentle, good-natured, and strong at the same time. Red as the colour for the blood that she sacrificed to give life, red for the love that she is able to, red for the fire that blazes in her, the unbridled power of a mother. She is placed in the middle, standing for the centre around which the world and the universe rotate.“
