"Human or Divine, The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam" is an illustration by Edmund Dulac, a renowned British artist known for his exquisite illustrations of literary works. This piece, depicting figures in traditional Middle Eastern attire against a moonlit landscape, captures the essence of Omar Khayyam's poetry, which explores themes of love, wine, and the transience of life. Dulac's delicate use of color and intricate details creates a captivating scene that evokes a sense of mystery and romanticism, characteristic of his Art Nouveau style.
