Kilim Konya - Anatolia. Circa 1880. 420 X 168 Cm

Let's put aside perhaps the spectacular aspect of the piece to focus more on its subtleties.
The motif repeated throughout the central field is that of the Mother Goddess, symbol of femininity and eternal beauty. A true object of seduction and desire, this kilim exudes a gentle power diluted by a complex palette of plant hues in perfect harmony.
This is pure pleasure.
There are infinite Abrashs all over the surface.
This technical process creates gradations, variations in intensity and gives relief and depth to each motif. Our eyes are instantly seduced by this richness and diversity, and we enter this piece as we leave it.
What moves me most, I must confess, is the skill and mastery.
One day, a professor at the University of Fine Arts in Toulouse, visiting our Gallery, told me: "It's amazing! Just think: among my many students, perhaps none could achieve this degree of color choice and harmony... ! "
