About the Item

77620 Vintage Persian Karabagh Pictorial Rug 04'05 x 07'04. Persian Karabagh pictorial rugs are handwoven masterpieces originating from the Karabakh region in the South Caucasus, influenced by Armenian, Azerbaijani, and Persian cultures. Known for their intricate designs depicting nature, historical events, daily life, and mythology, these rugs feature vibrant colors and high-quality wool. The detailed imagery and symbolic narratives make them culturally significant and valuable artifacts, sought after by collectors and art enthusiasts worldwide for their craftsmanship and historical context. With its geometric pattern, bold form, and vibrant colors, this hand-knotted wool vintage Persian Karabagh rug embodies the rich cultural attributes of tribal weaving. The rug's design reflects the beauty and intricate craftsmanship that are hallmarks of this traditional art form. The red abrashed field features a striking royal blue hooked backdrop that showcases two orange square compartments. Each compartment is intricately patterned with symbolic imagery, these motifs, along with ambiguous symbols and reindeer, add immense visual interest and graphic appeal to the rug's overall design. This pictorial Karabagh rug featuring huntsmen on horseback, cars, the tree of life motif, birds, dogs, and reindeer embodies a rich history of symbolism. Huntsmen on horseback represent nobility, bravery, and tradition, while cars symbolize modernity and progress. Reindeer symbolize prosperity, abundance, and a deep connection with nature, reflecting themes of harmony, travel, and resilience. Their inclusion represents the nomadic heritage and the strength to endure and overcome challenges. The tree of life signifies growth, immortality, and the connection between realms, reflecting the cycle of life. Birds symbolize freedom, peace, and spirituality, and dogs represent loyalty, protection, and companionship. Together, these symbols create a narrative that blends traditional values with contemporary influences, highlighting themes of nobility, progress, eternal life, freedom, and loyalty. A cut-out royal blue field is outlined with an ivory running dog, also known as a Vitruvian scroll, giving the rug a sense of order and definition. This field is enclosed with a colorful Bergama border that pulls together hues from throughout the Karabagh rug into a bold, expressive design, enhancing the rug's cohesive and dynamic aesthetic.
