Lady Godiva on Horseback - 128 x 103 cm (1.3184 m2)
Discover the dramatic elegance of this Persian Handknotted Tableau Carpet – Lady Godiva on Horseback, a breathtaking tribute to one of history’s most legendary tales of bravery and compassion. This pictorial rug captures the moment Lady Godiva rides through the town of Coventry on horseback, clothed only in her long hair, in protest against oppressive taxation imposed by her husband.
Rendered in a near-sculptural aesthetic, the design uses delicate tones and sharp contrast against a deep black background, enhancing the emotion and classical strength of the story. The noble white horse, regal in posture and motion, further symbolizes purity, dignity, and the power of silent protest.
Handwoven in Tabriz using the finest wool and silk, this masterpiece is more than an artwork—it's a message of moral courage and dignity, brought to life through Persian craftsmanship and European inspiration.
