As you know I am from Iran (Persia). I chose the topic “Persian Rug” for this paper. I’d like to introduce Persian Rug as one of the Iranian arts. I hope it helps you to become familiar to this type of Persian art.
Introduction:
From a long time ago, man has been in the thought of preparing a suitable mat and worthy cover to protect him both in tumult of wind and rain and provide him with a comfortable bed as a cold and heat insulator. Nests of birds and interwoven stems of plants were of patterns directing man to weaving. Primitive man had acquired skills such as basket weaving by interweaving vegetal textiles and barks, and by utilizing wool of animals living in primitive societies could offer mats not so soft. The most ancient handicraft, which was found by Russian archaeologists in Eastern Turkestan (1949) named Pazyryk rug (3-5 centuries). Experts accredit it to be” Persian” regarding its designs. Pazyryk, which its size is 1.8 x 2 meters, is reserved in the Sent-Petersburg Armitage Museum. According to opinion of experts the art carpet weaving in Iran is at least 3500 years old.
Pazyryk
Colours applied in this rug are deep red, yellow, pale green, and orange.
