Antique Bessarabian Tapestry, circa Mid 19th
Century Antique Bessarabian tapestry rugs or kilims
like this lovely example are famed for their naturalistic patterns of
floral garlands and bouquets, much like the Armenian Karabagh pile
carpets with similar designs. Ultimately they reflect the realistic
design tradition of Aubusson and Savonnerie carpets, although with a
more free-flowing, less structured layout evocative of the natural
world. Here the softly colored flowers are projected against a
variegated green ground redolent of life and lushness. This carpet is a
veritable Primavera of interior decor.
