I don't see how asking him what it means was an incorrect question.

If I painted an abstract heart and an arrow, I would say that it is a heart and an arrow, and that it meant pain, sorrow, heart-breaking.

I'm taking Art History this year, I think I remember hearing that he supposedly never finished it, not sure though, might have been another painting since we brushed up on it at the beginning of the term ;P

You can look at it however you want to, but he never openly stated what the picture was about.
