Description
The structure and details of the Herises are based on the well-known Lachak-turunj composition.
Along with depiction of human figures, Azerbaijani carpets sometimes “zoom on” body parts (eyes, hands, moustache, etc.), which may have a ritual meaning.
This model features the figure of the person represented in the carpets. It depicts certain human actions, most commonly dancing, e.g. a person dancing with a handkerchief in hand.
