Correction on my initial analysis. Thanks to twitter for the correction I read the painting wrong
Murtasim image is complete but hers is not. Meerab is yet to find her true self. Faceless person is symbol of a higher authority, this authority can be absolute, impassive and cruel, she has authority over him. And a face with no mouth has no real identity like Meerab. He is looking at her, and she is looking straight ahead clinging to his neck she fears nothing as long as he is holding her.
That rod is a bird perch on her side of the neck. The brush is painting a bird with wings spread wide on them, you see bird feathers. Bird can be eagle or falcon, it is identified as falcon based on its eyes and beak, and there is taxidermy falcon in Murtasim's gun room. Falcon on Meerab and Murtasim means victory, overcoming adversity, freedom and nobility, but it can also represent many things metaphorically.
For Murtasim it represents Natural Leader, Decision Maker, Problem Solver, Thrives under Pressure, Hot-headed, Superiority complex.
For Meerab it means Outgoing, Visionary, Impatient, Prone to taking risks, Impulsive, Aggressive behaviour, Unforgiving, Self-centered.
