Book
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.

Cloth. Condition: Very Good. Frank Brangwyn (illustrator). An illustrated edition of Edward Fitzgerald's renowned translation of Omar Khayyam's 'Rubaiyat', complete with four plates in colour. 'Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam' refers to Edward Fitzgerald's 1859 translation of a selection of Persian quatrains attributed to Omar Khayyam (1048-1131). By the 1880s, the work was extremely successful, and had been published in a number of editions. It has since inspired countless translations into other languages. Fitzgerald's translation was loose and interpretive, referred to by its author as 'transmogrification', to the extent that some consider the translation poetry in its own right separate of its source material.Undated; dated from copies held on Jisc.Illustrated with four plates in colour by Frank Brangwyn. Collated, complete.A delightful copy of this beautiful translation of Omar Khayyam's Persian verses. In the publisher's original full cloth binding.
