Etymology
The word comes from the Arabic root ر-س-م (r-s-m), which carries the sense of drawing, tracing, or marking out. The pattern مَفْعَل turns a root into a noun of place, so مرسم literally names the place where the action of the root happens. Here that place is where drawing occurs: a studio.
