Extremely Fine Persian Tabriz Hunting Scene Rug Pictorial Silk and Wool on Silk foundation

This exceptionally fine Persian Tabriz rug is a magnificent example of Persian ‘revivalist’ weaving, presenting a hunting scene from the verses of the Persian poet Ferdowsi. The depiction includes the Bahram Gor (Bahram V), specifically from Ferdowsis’ famous literary work ‘Shahnameh’ (Book of Kings) identified in the finely woven nastaliq script in the border cartouches. Bahram Gor, (Bahram V) was the Sasanian King of Kings, (Shahanshah) from 420 to 438. Bahram is in Islamic-era literature often known by the epithet of Gur/Gōr (Jur in Arabic sources), meaning “onager/wild ass”, seemingly due to his fondness of hunting the animal. The onager was the fastest animal in the deserts of Central Asia Central Asia even causing difficulties for an experienced rider to catch it.

The mounted hunters are drawn with exceptional detail showing the animals and figures given depth by contrasting colour shading. The scene is given a high degree of realism as the animals and hunters are shown in varying orientations giving a remarkable sense of movement and fluidity to the artistic composition.  The colours are in the main are soft and pastel in tone, consistent with 20th century ‘Pahlavi’ woven art. The pattern elements are uncrowded which gives an open airy appearance.

This Pictorial Persian Tabriz rug is an accomplished work of woven art of the highest technical quality woven with close cropped Kork(Cashmere) wool, with silk highlighting allowing for extreme detailing to be created.
