Artwork Description

The inscription reads, ‘Amal karkhaneh Hajji Sayyed Reza Kashani, 'Made by the workshop of Hajji Sayyed Reza Kashani'

While this rug is signed by an unknown weaver, Hajji Sayyed Reza Kashani, it bears all of the characteristics typical of the “Mohtasham” workshop. It is clearly drawn, with a curvilinear design, but with an execution that is somewhat angular, and the wool used is the very best kurk wool. For a discussion about the weaver Mohtasham and his carpets, see Siawosch Azadi, 'The Mark of Mohtasham', HALI, no. 160, 2009, pp.67-73). For further Mohtasham carpets in the present sale, see lots 159, 160, 205 and 222.
