The history of Hunting Scene rugs dates back to early 16th-century Persia, during the rule of the Safavid dynasty (1502–1722). This period is considered the ‘heyday’ of Persian weaving, with Shah Abbas remembered as a great patron of the arts. Since then, Isfahan has remained one of the foremost centres for crafting the finest hunting scene rugs in Persia.
