The work deals with Film, Gun, Action, Bird, Love. Photographed by Jonas Merian. + - Entry no.: V1 CC3 2010 AC0 000 N 142 Title: Untitled Artist: Anonymous Year of creation: Unknown Photographer: Jonas Merian Copyright info: Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.0 Generic (CC BY-NC-SA 2.0); https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.0/ Date Photo Taken: February 20, 2010 Location: Amla Para, Dhaka, Bangladesh Resolution info: 531x800 Source: https://www.flickr.com/photos/jonas_in_china/4564606176/ Notes: Inspired by a Bangladeshi film; the hero/actor/male-figure seems looks like Kazi Maruf; one actress in the middle, wearing heavy colorful eye makeups and earrings, is probably the love interest of the male figure; the person on the right is holding a gun; the background is fiery or suggesting some form of explosion; interestingly how devotional message like "আল্লাহ ভরসা" (Allah is trustworthy) on the rickshaw frame is conjoined physically with the metal backboard that depicts a scene from a film; the metal frame is designed with animal/bird motif and it looks not quite similar to the style incorporated in the metal backboard; the metal frame could be done by Karim as the name is written on frame in Bangla; possibly the metal frame of the rickshaw and the metal backboard attached to it are painted separately by different person.
