A vintage Persian Shiraz Pictorial rug. This sword-wielding, human-faced lion with a partial rising sun at its back is a traditional symbol of the Persian state/empire. Here on a crimson field, the orange-tawny lion steps right, but looks out at the spectator.  The creature’s mane is particularly elaborate and regal. The narrow ivory border has a fan palmette pattern. Perfect wall hanging for an Iranian monarchist.
