In Milan, Marge Simpson reappeared in front of the Iranian consulate, this time with Alī Ḥoseynī Khāmeneī's head in her hand. The mural, entitled The Final Cut - Marge and Khamenei, closes the triptych “The Cut” by artist Alexsandro Palombo.

In The Cut 1 Marge Simpson cut her hair with a pained expression, always in front of the consulate of Iran, to celebrate Mahsa Amini and the courage of Iranian women. The mural, however, was removed almost immediately. Palombo had responded by making The Cut 2, this time with an angry Marge Simpson showing the raised middle finger.

In the latter mural, removed this Monday, Marge Simpson reappeared in the same place, with Khamenei’s head in her hand. “January 1st, with a tweet from his official account, Ayatollah Khamenei made a clear invitation to the artists declaring that ‘art should tell exemplary models such as General Soleimani’. I accepted his invitation and took part in this unusual competition creating the work The Final Cut because I thought it was suitable to immortalize as it finishes an exemplary model,” said Palombo, and – following the smear with black paint of his work, to cover Khamenei – stated: “The Taliban censorship arrived on time this morning in the center of Milan and is proof of how much the dictatorship of Tehran is afraid of the power of art against a regime that takes away the voice of the people and distorts reality. It will not be their black paint to obscure the path to freedom, we will continue to use color to give light to the courageous resistance of Iranian women and the right to freedom”.
