caption_attribution_description: English: As a witness to the pregnancy of Gabrielle d’Estrées, a painting was commissioned and completed in the year of 1594. &#160;From an unknown artist, this painting shows Gabrielle d’Estrées in a bathtub with her sister pinching her nipple, in a sign of the upcoming motherhood while Gabrielle holds the ring of Henry of France, father of her soon to be child. &#160;This painting bears the same composition of a painting from 1571, “ Diane de Poitiers” by Francois Clouet. &#160; Alireza Shojaian used the same composition as “Gabrielle d’Estrées et une des ses sœurs” to portray, in his very own way, a particular moment in our recent history when, during a concert by Mashrou’ Leila, in Cairo on 22 September 2017, many concert goers were arrested by the police for waving the rainbow flag in support for the LGBTQ community during the performance. This governmental intolerance to this particular community is recursive in most Middle Eastern countries. &#160; He has captured this not-to-be documented event by dedicating this collaborative artwork to Hamed Sinno, the lead singer of Mashrou’ Leila and portraying him pinching the nipple of Anubis, the ancient Egyptian god, who holds Ankh, the symbol of immortality. The tree symbolizes the growth of this tolerance movement. In the background, the water fountain symbolizes water; the element that can take any form or shape yet can penetrate rock. فارسی: در سال ١٥٩٤ نقاش ناشناس اثر "گابريل د ستري و يكي از خواهرانش" را در باب سند بارداري گابريل د ستري در فرانسه پديد آورد، در اين نقاشي گابريل را با حلقه سلطنت هِنري چهارم فرانسه (پدر فرزندي كه به دنيا خواهد آورد) در دستش به همراه يكي از خواهرانش در وان حمام در حال نيشگون گرفتن سينه ي گابريل به نشان از شيردهي و بارداري مشاهده مي كنيم. قابل ذكر است كه در خلق اين نقاشي از تركيبي مشابه نقاشي فرانسوا كلويه "ديان د پِتيِر" ١٥٧١ استفاده شده است. عليرضا شجاعيان با استفاده از تركيب بندي مشابه نقاشي "گابريل د ستري و يكي از خواهرانش" به ثبت يكي از رويداد هاي تاريخ معاصر ميپردازد. در تاريخ ٢٢ سپتامبر ٢٠١٧ پس از كنسرت گروه موسيقي لبناني "مشروع ليلي" در قاهره، دولت مصر اقدام به بازداشت تمامي تماشاگراني كه در حمايت از اقليت هاي جنسي پرچم رنگين كمان برافراشته بودند نمود. پيرو اين رويداد با دعوت حامد سنّو، خواننده ي گروه مشروع ليلي به همكاري براي خلق اين اثر، اقدام به ثبت سند براي رويدادي ثبت نشده كرده است. در اثر خلق شده كه عنواني مشابه با نقاشي گابريل نيز براي آن انتخاب شده است (حامد سنّو و يكي از برادرانش) حامد سنّو را در حال نيشگون گرفتن سينه ي آنوبيس، ايزد كهن مصري با نشان انخ (سمبل ناميرايي) در دست آنوبيس، مشاهده مي كنيم. و درختي كه در پس زمينه، نشان از رويش و ثمر نشيني تلاش بر احقاق حقوق اقليت هاي جنسي دارد، و آب نمايي كه عنصر آب را بازنمايي مي كند، عنصري كه نرم در هر فرم جاي مي گيرد اما قدرتمندانه هر صخره اي را شسته و عبور مي كند.
context_page_description: Hamed Sinno is the Lebanese American lead singer of the alternative rock band Mashrou' Leila.
context_section_description: Sinno has been featured on the cover of several magazines, including France's Têtu, Jordan's My.Kali, and UK-basked Attitude. He also appeared on the cover of the Middle East edition of Rolling Stone magazine as part of Mashrou' Leila.
  Sinno figured in a painting by the Iranian artist Alireza Shojaian dubbed Hamed Sinno et un de ses fréres, in the painting Sinno is depicted pinching the nipple of Anubis, the ancient Egyptian god of funerary rites. Anubis dons a rainbow colored Usekh collar alluding to the pride flag. The work references and draws inspiration from a painting by an unknown painter, titled Gabrielle d’Estrées et une de ses soeurs, that depicts the mistress of Henry IV of France. The collaboration with Sinno was a statement against systematic state-led persecution of LGBT minorities in Egypt. Shojaian painted the piece after the September 22, 2017 Mashrou' Leila Cairo concert during which the pride flag was flown. The Cairo pride flag incident resulted in the arrest of a number of concert-goers.
