World Trade Center War Rug with Brown Towers and People Falling

ID# 384
Date: 2003
Size: 24 x 31 inches
(61 x 79 cm)
Origin: Afghanistan
Style: WTC War Rugs - No Flag Banner
Tribe: Turkman
Condition: New condition. The condition of this new war rug is perfect. This is a fascinating example of a World Trade Center war rug without a banner of peace. Very rarely do we see four commercial airplanes, and the staff at warrug.com all seem to agree that this must represent the other planes that crashed on September 11th. It is interesting to note that never before have we seen a rug of this type contain the text, - bank - , although it is not clear that this is what this word actually is. This text is left for interpretation with a myriad of meanings. The American flags are particularly well drawn, as is the unusual way in which the fire is represented.
There is some minor bleeding of dark into light colors which is common in these types of new war rugs.
