A RESEARCH ON THE GRAPE MOTIF USED IN OUR TRADITIONAL ARTS

Summary/Abstract: Fruits always have an important place in human life. In addition to being one of the food sources we need to sustain our lives, they also remind us of concepts such as joy, fertility, rebirth, and paradise. Fruit motifs are included in the plant motif groups used in our traditional arts. One of the most used fruit figures is grape. Grape, which is mentioned in the Qur'an and known as the fruit of paradise, is a fruit attributed to holiness in many religions. The grape, which has been known and used since the first people, is the fruit of the grape vine. In ornaments, it is generally reflected in the form of clusters and leaves. It was also observed that the vine flowers were not included in the decorations due to their small and unpretentious nature. In our research, the oldest examples of the grape motif in Turkish art are included. In different centuries, the development and use of motifs were investigated with examples from different branches of art such as architecture, weaving, miniature, mural painting and tile.
