Bold Uzbek Embroidered Tent Hanging

Uzbekistan
20th century
Wool
64″ x 114″

An early-twentieth century Uzbek tent hanging, boldly designed and meticulously embroidered in shades of red, blue, and green on a neutral, plain weave ground.
The large dynamic composition is made up of pieced panels to accommodate for the small looms of the nomadic weavers.

A stunning example.
