The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam:
Unknown Year Hodder and Stoughton Edmund Dulac Edition

No exact date given to this edition. Wonderful art from Dulac…nothing new there, but the colors come through strong on the attached plates. Henry Stone & Son did the plates and borders.

The typeface is crisp and fits with the aesthetic.

Each quatrain art has a page marking it and protecting it, which is interesting.

Update 07/2023: Updated the layout, added pictures, and tweaked page copy.

Update 12/2024: Remove 1920s speculative dating that was from sellers.
