Latif Karimov is an outstanding citizen of the nation, scientist, artist, carpet weaver, and author of the essential work Azerbaijani Carpet. He was born in 1906 in Shusha, the ancient city of Azerbaijan. His father, Mashhadi Huseyn, was a hatter, and his mother, Telli Hajinasib gizi, was one of Karabakh’s well-known weavers.

In 1912, the Karimov family moved to Mashhad, a city in Iran. Here, L. Karimov improved his painting skills by studying the classical oriental art of calligraphy, After finishing school in 1922, at the carpet workshop of Mirza Alakbar Huseynzadeh, Karimov first worked as an instructor’s assistant, then as an instructor, and later as an artist. After returning to Azerbaijan in 1929, he worked at Azerkhalcha Scientific and Creative Production Association.

In the 1930s, when a period of mass production started, Karimov drew classical carpet sketches and brought a number of innovations into the art of carpet weaving.

In 1937, on the initiative of Latif Karimov, the Central Dyeing Workshop in Baku opened. He was the first to create a scale of colors for carpets.
