Description Beautiful book and catalog of early Turkish carpets from the Brukenthal Museum in Romania exhibited at the National Museum in Gdansk, Poland. The Brukenthal National Museum is home to the largest collection of classical carpets in Romania. The Gdansk exhibition featured stunning examples of Holbein, Lotto, white-ground Ushaks, and a wealth of Transylvanian rugs. The catalog is illustrated with color photos of several dozen rugs, plus additional images of Transylvanian churches where many of the rugs were originally preserved and discovered.

"This book is a tribute to the beauty of the Anatolian rugs in the Brukenthal Museum and of the Churches in Transylvania where they survived. These are best photos ever published about this treasure with an introduction by Stefano Ionescu and an essay about the history of the carpet collection of the Brukenthal Museum by Dr. Alexandru Sonoc. Includes detailed notes and a new theory of the design origins of the 'Transylvanian' group".
