Poltava in brown
In 1920, a prominent architect, restorer, art critic and collector Volodymyr Peshchansky came from Kiev to Lviv and brought, or rather rescued, a collection of old Ukrainian kilims saving them from the Soviets. This particular collection included a set of fabrics from the Poltava region, part of Left-bank Ukraine. Peshchansky deposited them in the Andrey Sheptytsky Foundation Museum, an institution that formed the foundations of the present-day National Museum in Lviv. The stylized vine motif of the Poltava pattern is later found in the book "Old Kilims of Ukraine" (Lviv, 1925), which was published by the collector himself. Shortly thereafter, it appears in a geometrical modernist version in the catalog of kilims from Mikhail Khamula's workshop, in Gliniany, under the number 1012. We do not know the author of this version, but we know that now, after years of neglect, it has appeared in Splot's offer! In short--a true kilim action-thriller.
