About the Item
This exquisitely crafted Hereke rug, measuring a delicate 30 × 19 cm (0' 11" × 0' 7"), is a miniature masterpiece that beautifully depicts Leonardo da Vinci's iconic "The Last Supper." Each thread in this rug is perfectly hand-knotted, showcasing the incredible skill and artistry of the Hereke weavers, renowned for their precision and attention to detail. As your eyes travel across the scene, you are immediately struck by the vivid portrayal of Jesus and his disciples. The figures are rendered in rich, vibrant colors, with their robes in deep blues, reds, and greens that seem to shimmer with life. The expressions on their faces are captured with remarkable clarity, each one reflecting the varied emotions and the tension of the moment. The background of the rug features the architectural elements of the original fresco with stunning accuracy. The receding lines of the walls and ceiling create a perfect perspective, drawing you into the intimate setting of the Last Supper. The long table, covered with a simple white cloth, is adorned with an array of dishes and cups, each one detailed and contributing to the overall realism of the scene. The border of the rug is a testament to the weaver's expertise, framed with a delicate pattern that echoes traditional motifs while complementing the central image. The intricate geometric designs in the border are woven in contrasting shades of black and gold, adding a touch of elegance and framing the central tableau beautifully. The fringes of the rug, soft and silky, add a final touch of finesse to this exquisite piece. They cascade gently from the edges, enhancing the luxurious feel of the rug and highlighting its fine craftsmanship. This Hereke rug is not just a depiction of a religious scene; it is a work of art that brings the story of "The Last Supper" to life with every knot and thread. Its compact size makes it a perfect piece for display, inviting viewers to appreciate its beauty up close. The combination of vivid colors, precise details, and the use of fine materials makes this rug a true treasure, a testament to the enduring legacy of Hereke weaving and a beautiful homage to one of the most famous works of art in history.
