Description

Persian textiles from the late nineteenth to the early twentieth century display a multitude of techniques as well as many different kinds of illustrations.

Besides, they are used in a number of different ways.

As the subtitle indicates, they range from precious brocades (Zar-baft) to printed cloths (Qalamkar), from opulent oriental floral patterns to narrative depictions, from hangings, covers, and garments to ones that are used for very special purposes--for example, cloths on which ceremonial meals are served and ones employed as chair and saddle covers, or animal trappings.

In this richly illustrated publication, Marie-Louise Nabholz-Kartaschoff presents examples from a highly diversified private collection.
