How many camels are you ready to buy?!
What do you think about this great graphic art expression woven by the heirs of the Nomads Afshar in Iran?
Unique Afshar modern art reproduction of an antique sofrah.
Size is cm 95x125.
Sofrah means table cloth in farsi.
This is a terrific graphic wonder.
120 camels, some heading west, some other heading east.
All these borders seem to protect the central field.
It reminds me of the works of the Dutch m. c. Escher (1898/1972) considered one of the world's most famous graphic artists.
Shall we consider it a rug or a painting, a painting or a textile marvel?
Great art, small money.
