About the Item

78827 Vintage Swedish Pictorial Rya Rug, 04'06 x 06'11. This vintage Swedish pictorial rya rug, measuring approximately 4x7 feet, showcases a charming and detailed summer landscape. The rug features a variety of pastoral scenes, including a boat sailing on a calm blue river, children playing near the water's edge, and women engaging in leisurely activities under the shade of a tree. The vibrant colors and intricate details in the weaving highlight the craftsmanship and storytelling typical of Scandinavian textile art. The lush green grass, clear blue water, and the inclusion of various figures create a lively and dynamic composition, evoking the serene and joyful atmosphere of a Swedish summer. The central motif of this woven wonder is a large, leaf-filled tree, around which the different scenes unfold. To the left of the tree, a woman in a pink dress stands with a child, while another child in yellow and blue clothing sits nearby, engaged in a playful activity. Further left, another woman, clad in a red dress, rows a small boat, her figure reflected in the gently rippling water. The upper section of the rya rug shows a lone boat on the horizon, adding a sense of depth and continuity to the landscape. The bottom section of the rug continues the idyllic scenery with more figures and nature elements. A woman in a blue blouse and pink skirt stands with her arms outstretched, possibly singing or calling out, adding a sense of motion and interaction to the scene. The overall design is bordered by a rich brown frame, which contrasts beautifully with the lighter, earthy tones of the central field. The craftsmanship is further highlighted by the dense, knotted pile, providing both texture and durability. The Swedish pictorial rug’s fringed ends add a traditional finish, enhancing its vintage appeal and making it a perfect piece for both floor use and wall hanging. Dated 1959 on the back corner. Abrash. Hand knotted wool. Made in Sweden. Measures: 04'06 x 06'11. Date: 1950s. Mid-20th Century.
