Lot Essay


Lavish carpet reference books such as the present volumes allowed weavers in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries exposure to the Classical traditions of the magnificent designs of Mughal, Safavid and Ottoman carpets. The Mughal carpet illustrated here would go on to inspire later revivals as shown by a Tabriz carpet of the same design, see lot 184 in the present sale.
