description Peikar-e Farhād (The Body of Farhād), which is among the successful works of the renowned writer, Abbās Marūfi, uses a narrative configuration and a kind of relationship between its several subplots, which distinguishes this novel from other literary works. As such, Marūfi depicts a pictorial world of Hedāyat’s The Blind Owl in his novel and animates its imagery. This article analyses semiotic-semantic aspects within Peikar-e Farhād to elucidate how the inscribed "images" have been animated and have shaped the narrative frameworks of the novel. The narrator of this work is the woman within the painted tableau. These images in the novel have been verbalized, thus establishing a dimension of narrative. Through this narrative dimension and the modulation of presence and being, the painting evolves beyond a mere object or portrayal, metamorphosing into the subject of its own tale. She aspires to construct her destiny and narrative. "Seeing" entails a sensory-perceptual relationship, but in Peikar-e Farhād, it evolves into a system of reflection.  Under the gaze of the subject-viewer, the object-images undergo a fresh sense of transformation in their inner emotional states and are animated so as to experience presence in the subject's world. The utilization of this narrative framework in which painting is animated function as a medium of protest against how the presence of women in the society has been shaped. As a subject, the portrayed-painting embarks on a quest and strives to locate and meet her beloved, aiming to establish her existence and unearth meaning in her life. This gradual progression leads her to acknowledge the deficiencies of her external and genuine existence, instigating introspective uncertainty regarding her ontological status and ultimately renouncing her own presence. This process paves the way for the emergence of an alternative narrative discourse.
