About the Item
73703 Antique Persian Kerman Pictorial rug, Nader Shah Afshahr, Tapestry Wall Hanging. This antique Kerman rug displays a pictorial scene of Nader Shah Afshar (ruled 1736-1747). He was the 18th century founder of the Afsharid dynasty. Nader Shah Afshahr was one of the most powerful Iranian rulers in the history because of his military genius and battles. Some historians have described him as the Napoleon of Persia or the Second Alexander. This Pictorial tapestry depicts Nadar Shah wearing the Afshari crown as he sits on the Peacock Throne. He brought back the Peacock Throne from his victory in India after defeating the Ottoman Turks. Nadar Shah Afshahr is surrounded by wise men and courtiers all of which have their hand placed over their heart symbolizing their respect. A table with a vase of flowers is placed in the center of the turbaned scholars. This antique figurative tapestry is enclosed with a war border representing his many triumphs in battle.
