Well i am not an expert of Iranian drawings, but it is very obviuos that the theme here is about grape's vin. In persian Literature is Vin not only a drink, but also it is the "water of wisdom". Poets like Omar Khayam and Hafiz have mentioned this many times. Omar Khayam says in a poet you don't have to look to the religion way, if you really want to know the truth and meaning of creation, so you should drink vin. ------------- |

Yes that's surely the theme, and/or perhaps it's connected to some story. The central figure might be somebody or nobody special. You know a lot about eastern literature. I hope to learn as much about it some day. ------------- |
