THE FAMOUS MARouANO RUG.

Thirty-eiaht Thousand Dollars Paid
for Remarkable Fabric.
Thirty-eight thousand dollars was
the price paid for a Persian rug at
the auction sale in New York OF the
art collections Of the late Henry G.,
Marquand. The rug was woven in
the fifteenth century as a gift from
the Pasha OF Persia to the Sultan OF
Turkey, for the record held by Mr.
Marquand showed that it had been
found among the effects of the Sui
tan Abdul Aziz after his death.
Aside fs5m the marvellous color aud
texture, which is over FIVE hundred
knots TO the square inch. the feature
OF the rug is that the inscriptions
throughout its border, as well az ara
besques In the medallions OF the
design. are woven in silver thread.
Il is a companion piece for the
famous carpet owned by the Prince
Alexis Lobanow Rostowsky. which
was shown in the Vienna Museums
exhibition in 1889. The Rostowsky
rug was supposed to be without a
parallel In the world, but this carpet,
the most highly valued among the
textile treasures Of Mr.. Marquand.
contains positive internal evidence
that It was made upon the same
looms and in the same perioi, and
doubtless for the same purpose as
that of Prince Lobanow, which also
passed into the possession OF its
present owner directly from the SER
aglio in Constantinople SO far as
can be ascertained this carpet is the
highest class oriental fabric now in
existence in this country.
