About the Item

This rug is a work of textile art that incorporates elements from Pablo Picasso's 1921 painting "musicos con mascaras". It was published by Desso in a limited edition of 500, making it a unique and sought-after collector's item. The rug's design is a faithful interpretation of Picasso's cubist style, characterized by geometric shapes and bright colors. It features a complex composition of abstract figures and objects that seem to overlap and intertwine. The dominant colors include shades of blue, red, yellow and black, creating a striking and dynamic contrast. The carpet's motifs seem to include musical elements, such as sheet music and instruments, which are typical of certain periods in Picasso's work. The angular lines and shapes, as well as the bold use of color, reflect the influence of the Cubist movement, which sought to represent objects from multiple perspectives simultaneously. This rug is not only a functional piece, but also a work of art that brings a touch of modernity and sophistication to any interior. It is a tribute to one of the 20th century's most influential artists and a celebration of his artistic legacy.
