19th Century Turkish Kilim with Blue and Red Medallions

About the Item

This monumental Anatolian Kilim blends vivid saturated color with bold drawing and a keen sense of negative space. Woven on a narrow village loom in two halves and then joined together, the white of the field provides a perfect canvas for a central column of three highly graphic medallions composed of multiple layers of Classic Turkish latch-hook ornament. Complementary motifs are drawn throughout the field. Of particular merit are the reciprocal medallions drawn with blue and red with almost anthropomorphic arms and hands formed from the white negative space of the field.
