First Dulac trade edition. Edmund Dulac's illustrations for the Rubáiyát helped to confirm his position as "a direct challenger in the illustrated gift book market to the work of Arthur Rackham" (ODNB). Fitzgerald's translation was first published in 1859 and slowly gained recognition as a masterpiece of English literature. By the early 1900s, many of Fitzgerald's phrases had entered the common stock of English quotations and allusions; a growing "cult of the Rubáiyát" found expression in "the Omar Khayyám Clubs of England and America" (Yohannan, p. 202). Hughey, in her bibliography of Dulac, records the opinion of the publisher George H. Doran (who published the American edition) that "the book was a joy and a treasure. Its public acceptance was immediate and great". Hughey 21a. John D. Yohannan, Persian Poetry in England and America, 1977. Quarto. Attractively bound in recent reddish-brown morocco, spine lettered and decorated in gilt, raised bands, roll to boards, marbled endpapers, top edge gilt. With 20 tipped-in colour plates, tissue guards. Some occasional mild foxing, an excellent copy.
