KACHAN carpet (Persia), 1st third of the 20th century Dimensions : 205 x 130cm. Technical characteristics : Wool velvet on a cotton foundation. Framed by two fuchsia plant borders, the main navy border supports a series of oblong ivory cartouches with Abjad writing. The main subject depicts five characters, in a garden, under an apple tree, playing music, dancing and declaiming poems. Are they celebrating Noruz, the Persian New Year, or are they honoring the memory of a great scholar? The answer is certainly to be found in the translation of the inscriptions.
