The weaving of a pictorial rug demands much more skill from the weaver. They must be great artists because unlike curves, circles, or repetitive floral elements, it is more difficult to weave details and smaller elements that require great accuracy.
This style of weaving was initiated in Iran several hundred years ago when artists and poets wanted to express themselves by means other than paper.
It is important to understand how proud the Persians were of their history and culture. Seeing how weaving has always been a big part of the artistic expression of Persian culture, the two were combined to preserve a moment of their history in a beautiful rug.
