Sociological study of “Panah”religious paintig (meaning shelter) to uncover the mechanism of social creating based on a local theory, made by professor seyyed saeed zahed, shows that the painting has been the resultant of artist action in background of personality, culture and social condition together. Personality of the artist and cultural background have directly affected the inspiration, imagination and innovation by farshcian, but the social structure indirectly and unconsciously. Artist,s intention to suppression of people by Pahlavid regime in half of fifties(1350), which is clear in other paintings by the artist, has been revealed through theme of asylum and depicted in form of a special visual structure. Mahmood Farshchian has formed the visual structure of panah painting by using concentrated composition, empty space, nonfigurative and colorless anatomy of imam to reduce materiality and induce helplessness of the Shiite under suppression.
