Title not known (Ahmad 32)

Funerary Scene with mourning figures

This scene, painted by Mahoud Ahmad, centers on a wooden box that resembles a coffin and is covered with an Iraqi flag. Three figures with shadowy faces draped in ambiguous black garments gaze sadly outwards while a bare breasted woman carrying flowers looks upon the box. A young boy stands in the foreground whereas a man on horseback armed with a rifle dominates the background.

Location: Currently unknown. Possibly from the collection of the Iraqi Museum of Modern Art (the former Saddam Center for the Arts)

Hard copies purchased from the photographer of the museum in 2004.
