Description
A modernist wool rya rug by Ege Axminster A/S created in Denmark to the highest standards.
The image is based on a Salvador Dali (1904-1989) painting of 1969 interpreting Lewis Carroll's classic story of Alice in Wonderland.
Depicting Alice jumping rope in a long fluttering Empire style high waisted dress with her head and hands represented as floral bouquets with her magical jump-rope and her symbolic shadow figure next to her.
The dark grid lines on the ivory field creates an impression of vast space to the mountains in the distance.
Dali’s signature and his original crown symbol are intertwined in the lower left corner.
The six foot by nine foot (183 cm. by 280 cm.) rug has been professionally cleaned and is in excellent vintage condition. -
