(High-Collectible) This wonderfully tranquil Mohtasham Kashan is a magnificent early example of this legendary weaving style, achieving a woven precision that is awe-inspiring while also capturing the movement, whimsy, and abundance of a blooming garden. Individualized arrangements of floral clusters of diverse species are depicted in a heightened, realistic fashion. Proud bird pairs are standing guard among the gently kaleidoscopic, mirrored composition. At each end of the field, cypress trees appear to be wreathed in blue flame. Adding to its allure and artistic depth, this lyrically executed piece offers a dramatic spectrum of hues from master-craft recipes, now lost and forever unattainable. Although a tremendously early weaving, the luminous mountain-raised lamb’s wool utilized in its construction has ensured the surface still glistens after 175 years.
