RUBAIYAT OF OMAR KHAYYAM

by Omar Khayyam; Edward Fitzgerald

Illustrated by Edmund Dulac

Published by Hodder & Stoughton. 1st. 1909

Almost very good condition. The perfect showcase for Dulac's genius in depicting eastern fantasy with 20 magnificent tipped-in colour plates. Cream buckram stamped in rich gilt. Front cover has peacock design above and elephants below a central wreath. Spine has gilt titles and vignette of a flower urn. Peacock feather design on endpapers. Brown decorative border to each page. 11.25 x 8.75". Unpaginated.

Spine is very browned, with a couple of chips/nicks to top and tail. Bumping to corners. A few knocks to cover edges. Marks to covers. Inscription in ink to half-title page. Foxing to various degrees throughout the book. Plates are still very good!
