1920s Chinese Scenic Baotou Carpet

This small landscape rug is a study in blue tones. A river flows toward the foreground with two small fishing boats and rocky, tree topped islands. More trees, rock and a rustic house ornament the upper half of the landscape with curly clouds above, the diagonal swastika border frames the whole, with a pearl inner stripe. Stippling is employed to render a three dimensional effect.
