Art Nouveau, France, early twentieth century A classic Art Nouveau border of dynamic, biomorphic floral scrolls provides the essential design of this exquisite antique French carpet. The deep blue green field is articulated only with sinuous, undulating wave-like forms in tone-on-tone coloration, giving it a cool, fluid, ocean-like effect. The contrasting gold ground of the border endows it with an even more impressive, monumental presence, underscoring the deceptive simplicity that is the very essence of great Art Nouveau design.
