Central
Anatolian Kilim
Mid 19th
century
The design bears some resemblance
to that of pile Ladik prayer rugs, and the color combination
dominated by brown, yellow, and green is both unusual and
pleasing.
A similar piece in East Berlin has
been published by Volkmar Enderlein, in Orientalische Kelims,
Berlin, 1986, p. 108. Enderlein reports two others, one in Bertram
Frauenknecht, Anatolische Gebetskelims, Nürnberg, 1978, pl.
19, the other in B. Balpinar, Kilim, Cicim, Zili, Sumak: Turkish
Flatweaves, Istanbul 1982, Tf. 18
