Description
"Oh, come with old Khayyám, and leave the Wise To talk; one thing is certain, that Life flies; One thing is certain, and the Rest is Lies; The Flower that once has blown for ever dies.
― Attributed to Omar Khayyam (1048-1131)
Contemplate Omar Khayyam's poetic, existential philosophy as translated by Edward FitzGerald in 1859 and illustrated by Edmund Sullivan in 1913.
Sullivan's 75 images provide a unique symbology for Omar's great themes of life, nature, wine, illusion, roses, skepticism, death, love, humanity and fate.
