H. P. Lovecraft was a 1920's pulp horror writer who had an obsession with sea-creatures and tentacles (Call of Cthulhu is his most famous work). He was also rather afraid of women and sex. So a strong, naked woman standing in front of a tentacle-y tree seems very Lovecraftian to me :)
Thanks for the definition (I had already looked it up) but didn't know all those details. I keep seeing the word Cthulhu around teh internets and never knew where it came from... or how to pronounce it.
I do love her strength in this and the others from that day. She's actually laying in the tree... or what's left of it... it had been cut/chopped/brutally pruned... all of the branches were shorter than about 4-5 feet and no leaves were around. So... a very interesting backdrop... and we JUST got back in the car as 4 police cars rolled up and marched over toward the area we had just been in. I guess someone didn't like her strong nudity in a Seattle public park.
