Hard Back. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. Karlin, Eugene (illustrator). First Printing Stated. 80 Pages. Red cloth with gold lettering to spine and embossed female body decoration on the front. Beautiful gift quality condition. Attractive red endpapers. Front of dust jacket has ½ inch closed tear at the top spine area. Back of dust jacket has two similar closed tears at the top. One of the great classics of all time, Edward Fitzgerald's translation of the Rubaiyat is now reissued in this handsome new edition featuring seventeen delicate pen-and-ink drawings by the distinguished American artist Eugene Karlin. His unique style adds an exciting new sensation to the poetry. These soft, sweeping curves complement the sensuous beauty of these famed lyrics to the good life. Over the past decade, the works of Eugene Karlin have been exhibited at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, the Art Institute in Chicago, the Corcoran Gallery in Washington, D.C., and other leading art museums. In his illuminating introduction to the book, Professor T. Cuyler Young writes: In the Rubaiyat we have one of those rare conjunctions in literature where medieval and modern, Oriental and Occidental meet in a near miracle of expression. In this new Karlin edition, another miracle has come to an immortal favorite. This book reprints the first and fourth editions. The first because it was first and the fourth because it represents the final form of t he poet's experimentations and revisions. Omar became famous for his quatrains. An 1879 article credited him with 1,200 quatrains. Omar birth date is not known but he is thought to have died in 1123 or 1132. Eugene Karlin has won many art awards, including the Herald Tribune Children's Book Award in 1961. He is a six-time winner of the Award of Distinctive Merit from the Art Directors Club of New York, and a five-time winner of the Society of Illustrators Award for Excellence. His illustrations have appeared in the books of leading publishers, in magazines such as Esquire, Look and Ladies Home Journal and on Columbia Record albums.
