a charming central Anatolian prayer saph, c.1900, with a typically vivid palette. 320 x 103 cm. It is in very good condition, with a little loss at one end, a small bite out of the top and very minor old moth damage. Beautiful moss green and other natural colours - although the light blue in the spandrels is purple inside the knots, suggesting this is probably fuchsine, but luckily it has improved with age!
