All about most durable carpet of Iranian celebrities
The carpet of celebrities is one of the most beautiful and durable carpets in the world, which may have been designed with 109 kings of Iran, 54 celebrities of the world and 16 images of sculptures related to the Sassanid and Achaemenid periods. The area of this carpet is 30 square meters and it was designed and woven by Hassan Khan Shahrokhi in 1299 AH and woven by Master Ali Kermani.
The coloring of this carpet is done by skilled painters
Because the colors look very magnificent, and with a little thought on how to dye jewelry, crowns and clothing, and the distribution of different colors on the surface of the carpet, we realize the beauty and art of color; And this issue is one of the most important and obvious documents available, to prove the rise and rise of the art of painting in Kerman. The margins of this carpet are adapted from the book “Ajam” written by Forsat al-Dawla Shirazi, and examples of this book have also been used in the text of the carpet, and the names of the people are also listed next to it. In the lower part of the text of the carpet, a photo of Shah Qajar Ahmad Shah is engraved, so it seems that this carpet was woven during the time of Ahmad Shah Qajar.
Carpet Celebrity Carpets are divided into two categories:
In the middle text, which is oval; Some celebrities are designed, but in the middle of the carpet, less of an aspect of the royal throne can be seen, and the designer has designed and covered the space in the middle of the carpet poetically and with plant motifs. In the text around the ellipse, we also see the motifs of kings and kings, which is a completely royal space, and this is very clear from the way they sit, the design of their clothes, the royal crowns they wear, and so on. In the upper part of the carpet, the national emblem of that time was designed, and in the lower part, as it was said, the image of Ahmad Shah Qajar is.
This carpet also has three edges
In the first margin of plant motifs, the middle margin (large) of narrative motifs and the third (small) margin of the names of kings are engraved. There is no symmetry in the large margin, and the map is quite narrative. In the design of this carpet, the perspective has been fully observed and the design of the limbs and figures has been done with full skill. The way the bodies are placed and their view of the center of the carpet and a single point, and the design of the limbs in different directions, is as if the bodies are talking to each other in some parts of the carpet; And that has created a very intimate atmosphere for the design. In the design of the upper part of the carpet, Achaemenid period columns have been used; At the same time, the royal beds have been designed, as if the older and older kings are sitting on the throne.
