This paper examines Mohaddeseh Rabbaninia’s pictorial poetics, taking her artistic biography as its starting point. It then analyses her contribution to the exhibition "Forgotten Stars", a portrait of the German writer Sophie Mereau. Since Rabbaninia worked from a pre-existing portrait, the article explores her pictorial poetics as a process of translating a portrait into a different artistic language.
