This rug, based on Le Corbusier's "Reclining Woman with a Book," circa 1936, is a remarkable textile interpretation of an iconic work by the master of modernism. The composition depicts a stylized female figure in the artist's characteristic style, combining balanced forms, harmonious colors, and a modern sensibility. Entirely handmade and hand-knotted, this rug features a silky wool pile on a cotton foundation, offering exceptional craftsmanship, suppleness, and excellent drape. Its beautiful polychromy enhances the richness of the design and the elegance of the composition. Measuring 190 x 260 cm (75 x 102 in), this piece is a true work of art, ideal for a contemporary interior, gallery, or collection dedicated to 20th-century decorative arts. Le Corbusier (1887–1965) is one of the leading figures in modern architecture and art. A visionary architect, painter, draftsman, and theorist, he profoundly influenced design and the decorative arts. His pictorial compositions, often adapted into tapestries and rugs, extend his search for harmony between art, space, and everyday life.
