This densely decorated fragment emulates common methods of ornamentation and technique used in the province of Gujarat during the Middle Ages. Its border is decorated with a repeated stylized floral motif. The fragments larger design consists of small ogival motifs enclosed within intertwined tendrils forming larger medallions that run parallel to each other and repeat vertically. The textiles ornamentation is associated to Gujarat as the fragments decorative program borrows heavily from Jain painted manuscript traditions and architecture commonly found and made in the province. The vibrancy of the red dye comes from the Indian mulberry plant, which was commonly used in dye practices also associated with Gujarat.Found near the site of Fustat, Egypt, these textiles have been preserved largely due to the arid and dry climate of thConciliate belt; Manufaktura Paschalis Jakubowicz (Lipków; Pasów label; 1788-1794); 1788-1790 (1788-00-00-1790-00-00);Fredro, Aleksander (1793-1876), Contact belts, Polish belts, purchaseFragment 17th century Italian.

Date: last quarter 16th century.Although Mamluk Cairo fell to the Ottomans in 1517, the city continued to be a major center for artistic production. Using the same materials and techniques as earlier Mamluk carpets, Ottoman court carpets such as this were produced in Egypt for export, primarily to the Ottoman court in Istanbul. The immense scale of this carpet's drawing suggests it once formed part of an even larger carpet. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.CoasterCarpet 16th century This carpet comes from the shrine of Shaikh Safi at Ardabil, the dynastic shrine of the Safavids. The shrine attracted gifts from royalty, including the most famous pair of carpets from the mid-sixteenth century, made for a prayer hall commissioned by Shah Tahmasp (r. 1524-76). With its pairs of lions attacking stags, tigers, hares, bears, foxes and wolves across a field of vines and blossoms, this carpet, however, would not have been used in spaces designated for prayer and instead may have served as a floor covering in the refectory of dormitory. This carpet featured losses along the fold lines from improper storage, insertions from other carpets, and damaging adhesive on the back. Recent conservation treatment required removing the adhesive and humidifying the fibers. The carpet was pressure-mounted using an underlay support of custom-dyed red wool fabric to visually minimize areas of loss.. Carpet. 16th century.
