"Omar: A Journey Through Time and Poetry" Step into the world of Omar, where ancient verses and timeless beauty intertwine. From the enchanting Rubiyat Khayyam to the captivating illustrations by Edmund Dulac, immerse yourself in a tale that spans centuries. In 1937, amidst the fall season, a Saluki gracefully roams through nature's embrace. Just like Omar Khayyam himself, this elegant creature embodies a sense of freedom and wisdom. Picture Jerusalem: The Mosque of Omar, also known as the Dome of the Rock. Its majestic presence stands as a testament to history's grandeur. Here lies an architectural marvel that has witnessed countless stories unfold over time. Omar Khayyam, a name synonymous with brilliance and poetic mastery. His words echo through generations - "Here With A Little Bread Beneath The Bough, A Flask Of Wine, A Book Of Verse - And Thou Beside Me Singing In The Wilderness. " Oh, how paradise would be found within such simplicity. Edmund Dulac's illustrations from the Rubaiyat bring these verses to life. They transport us back to 1909 when his artistry captured hearts worldwide. Within those pages lie moments frozen in time – fleeting yet eternal. "Do you, " asks Dulac's brush strokes on paper, "within your little hour of grace?" Can you hold onto love before it slips away? These poignant images remind us to cherish every precious moment we have with our loved ones. Imagine standing before "The Palace That To Heav'n His Pillars Threw. " Kings bowed their foreheads at its threshold while a solitary ringdove cooed softly in its presence. Such scenes evoke both awe and tranquility – reminders that even greatness can find solace in simplicity. Travel further east to Baghdad's Sheikh Omar's tomb and mosque; witness history etched into stone walls.
