Omar Khayyam's laconic rubaiyat have remained precious pearls of wisdom for nearly a millennium and continue to captivate the hearts of readers worldwide. This full-color edition presents a collection of the Persian poet's selected quatrains, translated by O. Rumer, I. Thorzhevsky, L. Nekora, K. Balmont, and M. Vatagin. They are harmoniously complemented by paintings by renowned British artists Edmund Dulac (1882–1953) and René Bull (1872–1942). The reader will embark on a captivating journey into the enigmatic soul of a Persian, peer into a pottery workshop and behind the curtain of existence, open the Book of Life and converse with the Creator, taste forbidden wine and meet an unfaithful beauty, feel the breath of spring, and light a fire of love in their heart.
