A painting based on the poem of the Persian Symbolist Poet Khayyam. 

The verse of the poem on the painting is about love:

"This clay pot like a lover once in the heat
A lock of hair his senses did defeat
The handle that has made the bottleneck its own seat
Was once the embrace of a lover that entreat."

In this artwork there is a verse of his poem written on canvas, comparing the essence of the jar of wine (the clay) to human beings primordial essence (which is made of clay). 

The line says: this jar of wine you see now, once used to be a lover just like me (turned into clay again).

In the artwork is represented:
- an old jar of wine, 
- a woman with a turquoise flower (Persian motif) in her womb that represents the pureness, here as water and wine at the same time;
- the lovers' blood is painted with the red colour and represents the blood and the wine at the same time.
 
The poet uses the symbolic approach of wine relating it to love, pureness and wine itself.

It is a symbolic, abstract, figurative painting.

Persian/Canadian Painter born in Tehran, currently living in Florence, Italy. Permanent artist in gallery- Bologna Award-winning artist, in national and international contests, artworks published in important Italian ( such as reviews & articles on national newspapers, catalogo della arte moderna vol 50, 53,54,55) and Persian catalogues. My artworks are mostly inspired by ancient Persian poetry. They are very expressive and carry oriental art. My original creations are mostly made of acrylic, oil and mixed media. Acrylic helps a lot with the texture I use. I mix it with oil sometimes for its brightness. I am an artist and I consider myself a storyteller too. I am the link to Persian tradition in a completely contemporary way. I want to preserve its lyrical depth and introspective ability. I consider the artistic research an introspective analysis. When I paint figures come to the surface as from a mystic vision. Beauty reveals itself in symbolic shapes. They find a place on the canvas and remind the viewer about the importance of feelings.
