Elihu Vedder's Drawings for the Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám
American artist Elihu Vedder was one of the many artists captivated by Edward FitzGerald's translation of the "The Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám." Houghton Mifflin's 1884 publication of the work with Vedder's illustrations, one of the most successful editions of the work, is reproduced here. There is also a brief biography of Vedder and an essay on the work.
