"Millefleur" Carpet
Not on view
Densely patterned and formally arranged flowers occupy the red ground of this Mughal carpet. The rendering of lotus flowers in various stages of development is distinctly Indian. Scholars have not yet reached a consensus on the date of this work, although certain details in the patterning and technique indicate that it was likely produced in the eighteenth century.
