SERAPI
Northwest Persian

(High-Collectible) ("New Arrivals Gallery") Emanating late-afternoon solar energy, this wondrously preserved, first-rate Serapi carpet exhibits a rare combination of classical beauty and exotic character. In an entirely impressive feat of visual engineering, the gravity of its exhilarating overscale drawing is harmoniously proportionate to an exacting spaciousness and its smaller-scale design elements. Supported by substantial palmettes in the spandrels and beautifully articulated, sizable blossom pendants, the unusually grand, incandescent vermillion medallion is thrilling, enclosing flaxen fronds and an inspired usage of the Infinity symbol at its hub. On tendrils issuing from the center, variegated stylized flowerheads abound, with echoes of the carpet’s warm hues tempered by judiciously assigned cooler celeste and ocean blues, emerald and jaeger greens, creating a seismic shift in the traditional Serapi visage.
