Product description

Here is a unique and truly exciting vintage carpet: a vintage Scandinavian carpet featuring an extraordinary composition, entitled “The Dance.” This remarkable piece was woven during the middle years of the twentieth century, with the renowned Scandinavian artist Lars Gynnning being responsible for the piece’s exciting and truly unique design. Characterized by contrasting colors as well as an intriguing rectilinear aesthetic, this wonderful piece beautifully showcases some of the finer points of the mid-century movement that was so important to Scandinavian design. Somewhere between abstract and concrete, this alluring tapestry depicts a pair of dancers set against a background of rectilinear elements of various shades of red. The dancers are beautifully rendered: the more prominent dancer faces the observer, holding a graceful pose. The golden tones in her tutu and leotard contrast beautifully with the red of the background. To the right and in the distance, a second dancer appears, facing away from the observer. All of this comes together to form a truly unique and exciting composition that is also beautifully representative of an important chapter in art history.
