TY - JOUR T1 - Garden Carpet: From the Picture of “A Carpet from Empyrean” To the Design of “A Empyrean on the Carpet” TT - فرش باغی»: از نقش «فرشی از عرش» تا طرح «عرشی بر فرش» (بررسی تطبیقی مفهوم تمثیلی بهشت در فرش با باغ ایرانی) JF - goljaam JO - goljaam VL - 3 IS - 8 UR - http://goljaam.icsa.ir/article-1-381-en.html Y1 - 2008 SP - 107 EP - 124 KW - Heaven KW - Garden Carpet KW - Heaven Garden KW - Char-Bagh N2 - Iranian carpet has an allegorical and symbolic sense of heaven and heaven-like gardens which is similar to the descriptions in the Holy Qoran, yet the existing plans and sketches in heaven-like carpets are proportionate to Iranian garden’s design and architecture (especially the Char-Bagh) in the way that it draws an everlasting picture of infinite world and heaven gardens in this world. In Islamic culture the growing path of human is from carpet to the empyrean, human beings come to the world on the carpet and fly to the empyrean and in its highest levels they lean on the best carpets made of silk in the heaven. Based on this research, it has been shown that an allegorical concept of heaven and its gardens in Iranian carpet can be found completely, which are full of Islamic gardens showing the high potentials of Iranian carpet designers in drawing and designing heaven’s spiritual concepts to weave the strings in a way that they deserve the holy concepts and remind us the everlasting heavens which ties us up to the infinite existence of it.
