Antique Agra, India, circa 1900 A finely detailed Persian ‘Herati’ or ‘Mahi Mahi’ design unfolds with minute precision in allover symmetry across the field of this sumptuous antique Agra. The finesse of the drawing is matched by the subtlety of the soft, ton-on-tone coloration, which makes the complexity of the patterning recede from the viewer’s attention. An elaborate vinescroll palmette main border encloses the field, although with a greater light on-dark-graphic contrast to produce a nice framing effect.
