More information

The depicted carpet pattern with güls (medallions) and hook ornaments is one of the world's oldest. The term "Memling güls" comes from the painting "Flowers in a Jug" by Hans Memling from around 1485. In which a smaller carpet with the pattern is depicted. Today the painting is in the Museo Nacional Thyssen-Bornemisza, Madrid. (Inv. no. 284.b.)
