AN ESFAHAN CARPET
7 ft 7 in length x 5 ft width (231 x 152 cm)
Central Persia, Circa 1970s
This splendid Esfahan is a masterpiece of classical Persian rug design. A circular medallion filled with arabesque vines and flowers is surrounded by richly detailed palmettes and vines against a rich beige ground. Similar palmettes comprise the border, but set against pistachio green to echo the medallion. Rarely do design and color converge so effectively.
