Gold Antique Agra 10'7" X 13'

In the grand, classic Mughal tradition, a lush design of swaying vines, leaves, and palmettes undulates gracefully across the rich gold field of this superb antique Agra. A distinctive repeating pattern of palmettes flanked by sickle leaves comprises the main border, set against a salmon and ivory ground in pleasing contrast to the field. Seldom do late nineteenth-century Agra’s capture so well the effect and presence of the classical Mughal carpets that inspired them.
