EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Illustration for Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam" takes us on a journey through time and culture. Created by an unknown English artist in the 19th century, this print beautifully captures the essence of Edward Fitzgerald's renowned translation of Omar Khayyam's Persian poetry. The image transports us to ancient Persia, where we find ourselves immersed in the world of The Astronomer-Poet himself. With intricate details and vibrant colors, the illustration brings to life the verses that have captivated readers for centuries. As we gaze upon this masterpiece, we are reminded of the power of literature and its ability to transcend borders and time periods. The Rubaiyat is not just a collection of poems; it is a celebration of love, nature, philosophy, and our place in the universe. Originally published in 1859, this reprint from 1917 allows us to appreciate both Fitzgerald's poetic genius and the artistic talent behind this lithograph. It serves as a testament to how timeless works can continue to inspire generations long after their creation. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, we can now admire this piece from their private collection. This photograph print invites us into an enchanting world where words intertwine with artistry—a true treasure for lovers of English literature and fine art alike.
