Description

Ahriman (or Angra Mainyu) is the evil spirit opposing Ahura Mazda in the Persian mythology. My interpretation is based on a French translation of the Shahnameh (The Book of Kings) written by Ferdowsi in the 10th century, and some research. No doubt that it is a Western representation, Iranians may find him funny looking. ^^
