This rug, as well as having the typical animals in hunt scenes, lions, tigers, hounds, birds, etc., has elephants, a monkey climbing a tree and even a dragon. Grasses and blooming trees are interspersed between the animals and hunters. This is a very vibrant multi-color rug. This hunt pattern fallows a tradition that goes back hundreds of years with scenes that can be seen in miniature Persian paintings. This would be a great conversation piece for a home or office.
