Item Details
Description
Very Fine Rare Large Pictorial Bessarabian Kilim First Quarter of 20th Century. Size: 294 cm x 208 cm ( 116 ins x 82 ins ). This pictorial piece depicts the Bohdan Khmelnytsky Monument in St Sophias Square in Kiev, the capital of Ukraine. The monument honours Bohdan Khmelnytsky, a Ruthernian Nobleman of the Kyivan Rus and Orthodox Commander of the Ukranian Cossacks. The statue is one of the city's oldest sculptural monuments and represents Bohdan leading his regiments into the city after his victory at the battle of Pyliaytsi in 1648. This victory ultimately resulted in the creation of an independent Cossack State in Ukraine and a rejection of the current Ottoman Turkish Rule and an eventual acceptance of overlordship by the Russian Tsar. The double date of 1654 and Soviet Union Coats of Arms depicted on the rug refer to when the Treaty of Pereiaslav (aka as the March Articles) was finalised in Moscow, thereby securing the military protection of the Stardom of Russia, in exchange for allegiance to the Tsar.
