Fish & Stone
The School and Mosque of Shah Sultan Hussein

Whenever I remember the water-stone in the middle of the vestibule in the Chahar Baagh school, my heart lights up. Water-stones have the name of God in their breasts and are set up at sacred places to satiate the thirst of the thirsty. It's such a pity to find them so empty of water.And so, the water-stone which had been devoid of water and fish for hundreds of years, was filled to the brim with fish and water in my frenzied mind.
