Art Agayev - as is often the case with art - can be interpreted in many ways. Perhaps the painter protests against external exposure of the people with his religious affiliation and devotion "for show", when in fact their faith and values that guide the everyday life of the religion have little in common.

The problem of religious hypocrisy has for centuries been known and moved by artists of different nationalities. More than 200 years ago, our compatriot, Ignacy Krasicki wrote the story of dewotce that during fervent prayer declare the remission of sins before God at the same time imposing her maid cruel punishment for the slightest trifle. Could today Azerbaijani artist was moving the same subject, but in today's installment? Or do you have ideas for other interpretations of his works?
