ISFAHAN GARDEN OF PARADISE
Central Persian Antique Rug

(Connoisseur-Caliber) Evoking a more light-hearted ambiance that is uncharacteristic to the majority of Isfahan weavings, this painstakingly detailed, exceptionally finely woven 125-year-old piece demonstrates great command of sensitive color combining and chiaroscuro. An inconceivable variety of super-blooming species fills the rare ivory field, all flowering from two trees and magically floating branches in this lush garden “window.” This profusion houses numerous exotic fowl, including a nesting pair. The rabbit with psychedelic ears at the lower right corner appears to be astonished by the veritable wonderland unfurling before its eyes in a visually playful facet of this area-size jewel. Ebullient, expertly dyed colors, including a rare Delft blue, teal, brass, burnished gold, and rich guava tones, fill each etched bough and frond, layered sensitively for realism. A tumbling swirl of blossoms, wreaths and garlands illumine the festive frame.
