Antique Kashan, Persia, late nineteenth centuryA scalloped medallion with fleur-de-lis finials holds the field of this sumptuous antique Kashan, surrounded by an animated scatter of delicate vines, flowers, and palmettes. The interplay between the use of red in the medallion and the surrounding floral details against the light slatey blue of the field is especially cool and pleasing. The border echoes the elements and color of the medallion to a longitudinal format as an effective frame for the field, while also preserving a uniform, highly decorative design texture across the entire composition.
