This book features the collector/author's well-informed views about
a careful selection of mainly 19th century knotted pile carpets and
flatwoven covers in various techniques from his own extensive
collection, which has been built up over a period of more than five
decades. Many of the rugs, which are all of the highest graphic and
artistic quality, have been acquired without recourse to the open
market and are therefore previously unseen and unpublished. Raoul
(Mike) Tschebull's long experience in the genre allows insights
that go beyond the conventional wisdom of the traditional antique
oriental carpet bazaar. His collecting career began under the aegis
of one of the great US collectors of a previous generation, Joseph
V. McMullan. This beautifully illustrated book will include a
general introduction to the region, which straddles the present-day
border between north-western Iran and the Republic of Azerbaijan,
setting the context for the focused presentation of some 70
examples, each with the author's comments about design, structure,
technique and attribution, providing a matrix within which dating
can be considered. In-country field experience colours some of his
views, and extracts from his field notes and accompanying images
will be included the book.
