About the Item
Antique Indian brown handmade wool rug by Doris Leslie Blau
Size: 11'8" × 14'8" (355 × 447 cm)
An early 20th century Indian antique rug, the cinnamon field with an allover trellis of flowering vines and flowerheads within a royal blue flowerhead border.
The production of antique indian area rugs and carpets in any quantity dates back to the Mughal period of the late 1520’s. Beginning with the conquest of Northern India by Babur, weaving workshops developed around the imperial cities of Agra, Fathpur and Lahore. Akbar the Great (1556-1605) and his successors sponsored and encouraged the weaving of splendid Indian versions of classic Persian floral, garden and hunting north Indian rugs and carpets in NYC. As an eminent patron of the arts, Jahangir (reigning from 1605-1628), possessed a deep love for the beauty of nature, influencing the artists of his court. Unlike antique Agra carpets manufactured in the prisons of India, antique North Indian rugs were products of a cottage industry controlled by families of carpet weavers.
