Misin Tuodraneb and the Teheran Mafia, 1976

A painting by the Portsmouth artist Roger Morris of Misin Tuodraneb the famous Tehran Boss of Bosses has recently been discovered . The scene depicts heady pre-revolutionary days. Misin is seen surrounded by members of the Teheran Underworld and his cohorts. Mike ‘Little Boney’ Sesnairf is seen in an awkward pose amongst his fathers peers lighting the cigarette of Edrof Sinned.
A similar scene on a Teheran or Kirman small carpet but in the Qajar manner was identified and accurately catalogued in a late 1970s Christie's London sale.
