A village carpet with very interesting archaic motifs concentrated in the mihrab.

Per questo erano estranei alla "progettazione" come la intendiamo noi occidentali, ma lasciati all'improvvisazione, alla sensazione del momento. Quando divennero finalizzati al commercio persero, in molti casi, quella spontaneità e genuità che li aveva sino ad allora contr...leggi tuttoaddistinti. Paragonarli, anche se a grandi linee, alla pittura è assolutamente pratica da evitare.

alcuni particolari sono lasciati al caso,come la testa della cornice troppo bassa e forse non calcolata dalle tessitrici. anche il "regimental" della cornice principale richiederebbe uno stile più rustico nel centro. dettagli che Ligabue non avrebbe trascurato
