Item Details
Description
Ca. 1800, 248 x 170 cm, Central Asia, Uzbekistan

A large Suzani from the town of Kermina in the Emirate of Bokhara with a brownish cotton ground. The diamond lattice of green leaves is not drawn in the same mechanical style as seen in later examples, but retains an appearance of movement due to slight irregularities, imbuing the composition with a lively expression. The design is directional as each of the flowers is attached to a stem. Large circular and fan-shaped blossoms surrounded by elongated leaves make up the border design. Kermina Suzanis are characterised by an elegant style and an attractive palette. - Minor repairs; several missing sections have been backed with fabric, otherwise well preserved. Backed with canvas.
