Antique American Rugs — A Magnificent Antique American Navajo Rug With Black and White Squares, United States, early twentieth century – The field of this dazzling antique Navajo consists of what seems to be a free form checkerboard pattern in tan, dark chocolate, and ivory, with a single accenting red square at the center. A closer look reveals that the colors are arranged in repeating diamond array. The elements of the design, and especially the strategy of concealing pattern beneath apparent randomness, recall the geometric paintings of Mondrian, reminding us of modernist appeal that the best Native American Navajo rugs have to offer.
