Antique Agra, India, circa 1900.This sweetly elegant, large-scale antique Agra has an allover design of flowering vines arranged as a delicate trellis across a soft tan field. The design is carefully arranged and controlled so as to produce a latent, see-through pattern of staggered medallions or cartouches. The palette is rather reserved with soft aubergine an mauve tones against the tan, with sparing use of darker outlines only for the vines. This approach carries through into the rosette border that encloses the field, endowing the entire composition with a consistent color and design texture that makes for an ideal decorative carpet.
