Hardcover. Condition: Good. A nice-looking lot of different editions of the Sufi poet's best-loved, classic epic poem. The individual volumes are illustrated beautifully by a range of different artists and in multiple formats. The poet, Omar Khayyam (or Khayyami) was born, likely at Nishapur, in the Persian northeast, somewhere between about 1025 and 1050 A.D. His surname "Khayyam" means "tent-maker" in Persian, which might, like St. Paul/Saul, have denoted his father's vocation and major income-source. The lot is comprised of the following: 1) Ruba'iyat of Omar Khayyam, New York and London: T.N. Foulis, 1920, a stated reprint of the Second Edition of Macmillan & Co. fro 1859, and illustrated with 15 colored plates by the incomparable artist Frank Brangwyn, tipped-in, onto stiff card stock, quite fine, including at frontis.

Sullivan including at frontis. 193 [1] pp. 4) Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam, the metrical translations of Edward FitzGerald and E.H. Whinfield and the prose version of Justin H.
