Cloth. Condition: Very Good. Frank Brangwyn (illustrator). A smart copy of Frank Brangwyn's illustrated edition of Fitzgerald's translation of Omar Khayyam's 'Rubaiyat'. Omar Khayyam was a Persian mathematician and astronomer, born in the 2nd Century. He gained great popularity for his poetry after the translation of Edward Fitzgerald. However, Fitzgerald's translations are fairly loose, with some considering that his translation of 'Rubaiyat' could be considered as Fitzgerald's own original poetry that are only loosely based on Khayyam's quatrains.This, a reissue of the 1906 edition illustrated by Frank Brangwyn, features four colour plates, and further decorative designs by Brangwyn, the prominent Welsh artist and watercolourist. Collated, complete.With a former owner's inscription, dated 1912, to the verso of the front free endpaper. In the publisher's original cloth binding.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Frank Brangwyn (illustrator). 'November 1920' on the copyright page (no other dates). This is the edition that you find at the end of the listings where the most expensive copies reside. It possesses the 15 tipped-in color plates (all present) which are reproduced from oil paintings by the renowned artist Frank Brangwyn. It is written that what sets this edition apart from the others are these illustrations by Mr. Brangwyn along with the elaborate page decorations he has created. One writer references this as the 'near legendary so-called Olive Edition.' I'll plagiarize a description that I couldn't hope to match: 'The magical text of the featured quatrain on each page is presented in a decorated tinted border of olive green ink. The binding is olive green, lettered and ornamented in gilt on the spine, while the front panel is masterfully decorated in brown and olive green.' Note that part (only part) of the gilt of two title letters on the spine is faded away, the other letters are not faded at all. One of the last pages states 'This Edition Of The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam Is Reprinted From Fitzgerald's Translation Published In Eighteen Hundred And Fifty-Nine.' The covers of the book are in very nice condition. They are quite clean, two small spots on the rear cover (3rd photo). The edges are in very good shape. The corners have only the mildest of rubbing, no rub-through. The spine looks very good. The book is square and the spine is straight. The covers lie pretty flat against the paper, but when you look from the side, looking straight at the middle edges, you'll notice that these edges widen at the top and bottom and narrow a little bit at the middle. The pages are quite thick. They are rough-cut at the middle and bottom edges. The binding is quite solid from cover to cover. I turned over all the pages. There is only one instance where there is a very thin space between two facing pages, the copyright page and the page titled 'Illustrations In Colour'. Both of these pages are tightly bound from top to bottom. Both covers are tightly bound. There is a little tan spotting on both sides of the blank second front end paper and on the facing half-title page and its blank verso. These light tan spots are very small and while they continue for a few pages more, there are typically no more than a few light spots on these, and after that they are quite rare and the great majority of text pages are perfectly clean. The light spotting does reoccur on the second of the rear blank end papers and on the rear inside cover, not too badly. The pages are quite clean. I saw only a very occasional small spot of soiling probably no more than a handful in total. The tipped-in color plates are mounted on gray stock, nicely thick pages. Almost all of these pages are in excellent condition, two have a few tiny scuffs just adjacent to their juncture with the facing pages, and two have a little bit of crinkling also just adjacent to the juncture, very minor. All of the tipped-in color plates are in exceptional condition. There are no tissue guards in this book. Not that you would expect it, given the thickness of the pages, but there are no turned-down corners or placeholder creases. Nor are there any markings or attachments of any kind. There is one penciling (which could easily be erased). It's on the blank first front end paper and tells us that this book was at some point residing in England. The penciling reads '15 coloured plates by Frank Brangwyn' and then underneath a pound sign in front of 75.00. There is no other writing to be found anywhere in the book. The last two pages have the heading Vocabulary and present Persian words and their meanings in English.
