About the Item
Exquisite 1900s Viennese Art Nouveau Rug
Size: 8'5" × 13'7" (256 × 414 cm)
This spectacular early 20th-century Viennese Art Nouveau rug is a captivating embodiment of fin-de-siècle design. Woven around 1900 in Vienna—a thriving hub of artistic innovation—this piece radiates the sophistication and elegance associated with the Wiener Werkstätte and Secessionist movements.
Rendered in soft, mellow hues of buff, rose pink, and faded terracotta, the rug’s design masterfully balances abstract geometry with fluid organic motifs. The border features a rhythm of fan-like, flared cartouches that resemble stylized blossoms or starbursts, each framed by a textured ground of tiger-stripe patterns and ripple lines that echo the movement of water or wood grain.
Delicately drawn swirling lines dominate the field, conjuring the image of ripples across a serene surface—perhaps a quiet pond or a breeze-swept lake. Interspersed among the whorls are subtle outlines of leaves, fish, and birds, adding depth and naturalistic poetry to the composition without overwhelming it. These motifs emerge and recede like apparitions, contributing to the rug’s dreamlike atmosphere.
The overall palette is warm and serene, with faded rosy pinks and creams lending the composition a painterly softness, while the decorative precision and architectural framing elements lend structure and balance.
A rare piece from the Doris Leslie Blau Collection, this rug exemplifies superior artistry and tradition. Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
