Notes: This Persian rug represents the history of the old Persian empire as it was told through it's poetry. There is alot of stories being told through it pictures, so bare with me. The borders show the different styles of poets and poetry and if you look closely you will notice that the border is like a book in itself. The bottom of the rug shows the figures of biblical figures of Moses and Abraham. The middle of the Tabriz rug depicts an ancient Persian love story and the everyday life of the peasants in the old Persia. The top of the rug shows the first Shah of Persia on a horse looking for his soon to be wife (who seems to be posing for the ancestor of the Playboy magazine). The condition of this Persian rug is excellent and there are no defects that we know of. This is one of several Persian rugs that were sold in Iran by a private party and became part of our collection many years ago. Unfortunately, these type of historical Persian rugs are pretty much a thing of the past and it is rare to find one like it in this great condition.
