    I recognize the Plato shadows on a wall ref and someone commented about Sisyphus. Obviously, Saddam was in a hole. What’s the rest? Looks like pick-axe people are part of a 2d video game. I don’t get anything other than what I’ve described.

      The caption is a reference to “The myth of sisyphus” by Albert Camus. “One must imagine Sisyphus happy”. Good book.

      The gray silhouette in the hole is a nutty putty cave reference. It’s pretty horrifying. Tl;dr version, cave exlorer gets so stuck it’s actually impossible to remove him.
