Notlar
The design on this decorative silk hanging combines a variety of styles. It was made in Iran, and the highly stylised blossoms arranged like a tree are typically Iranian. The more naturalistic flowers above the arch, however, resemble Turkish Ottoman designs. The flowers in the border show the influence of new floral designs imported from India after 1600. They are strikingly similar to South Asian patterns in which flowers are shown head on.

Fiziksel açıklama
Textile. Inner ground is deep blue. A band with floral motifs frames a cusped arch under which are a single stem and three large palmettes, side stems that form three ogives, cloudbands and butterflies. The voided silver spandrels present prunus blossoms.
