Antique Bezalel Rug 8514
Antique Bezalel Rug from Israel, early twentieth century Initially this
lovely antique Bezalel impresses the viewer as a design of oriental
derivation, and to some extent its details are indeed Persian. But much
of the feeling is European, Art Nouveau, or even neo-medieval Arts and
Crafts, recalling the designs and the coloration of William Morris
wallpapers, with their swaying floral forms pulsating with life and
energy. This piece testifies to the eclectic origins of the Bezalel
weavers and designers, reflecting their European as well as Oriental
heritage.
