It belongs to Iranian girls who still weave carpets in the far away villages without hot water, without a prosperous life and far from services, and we never see their faces, and the painter tried to show the face of one of them. A girl who weaves rugs and Gabbeh (which is a type of hand-woven rug) in a distant village called Nichkuh in Chalus district (northern Iran), and in her whole life she has seen urban installations from five to six times. Also, she sometimes walks 18 to 25 kilometers to get to her study site. I dedicate this work entirely to the girls whose faces have never been seen, but who design and knit great patterns (great drawings), they are also very beautiful and cheerful girls inside.
