Milieu and Artistry of Antique Caucasian Rugs

Описание: Bordering Iran to the North, the Caucasus Mountains ranks among the most grandiose and hostile landscapes in the world. The existence of the Caucasian tribespeoples depended entirely on their ability to cultivate a simple innovativeness of lifestyle, along with a deep understanding of the natural forces which governed them. They learned to find strength and inspiration in the harsh, yet majestic mountain surroundings. By living a life of almost continuous physical activity, they learned to tap into the instinctive nature hidden within to guide them. Perhaps as an expression of the deep joy of a people living and working close to the earth, the tribespeople wove rugs. As a whole, antique Caucasian carpets possess an individuality, a boldness and deep sense of unity which is unsurpassed in the world of antique Oriental rugs.
