Driving a bicycle

Forest
An elderly, slightly overweight Iranian woman, with a messy bun hairstyle and dressed in an off-the-shoulder dress, is cycling along a pathway in a dense forest. In the distant background, the silhouette of the historical fortress known as Alamut Castle can be seen, perched atop the rugged peaks of the Alborz mountains. The depiction is rendered in a unique style that focuses on a pattern of repetition and polka dots, creating a sense of infinite immersion.
