Persian Pictorial Textile Oversize Oblong Scarf
This striking oversize scarf evokes a spectacular pictorial carpet made in 17th-century Iran and housed at The Met. Featuring a European pictorial perspective and border compartments inhabited by figures in European-style dress, the textile's composition is evidently inspired by contemporary Flemish tapestries; however, the technique and execution are distinctly of the Safavid court. The carpet's Western influence indicates that it may have been woven in Iran for export or, perhaps, intended as a diplomatic gift.
