"The Eyedrops of Love Come from Nile River" evokes the mystique of ancient Egypt while weaving the poignant tale of Şirin and Ferhat, star-crossed lovers forever separated. Inspired by Egyptian aesthetics, this artwork pays homage to the Nile's cultural significance. Amidst hieroglyph-adorned landscapes, the lovers' agony is depicted. An exquisite vial, cradled in the hands of an Egyptian deity, symbolizes the elixir of their forbidden love. The mighty Nile, a silent witness, weeps crystalline tears. This composition, echoing the eternal saga, delves into the universal theme of love thwarted, where even the grandeur of a river's tears cannot mend the rift between devoted hearts.
