As one of the leading academic painters of the day, M.V. Dhurandhar’s illustration of the Rubaiyat reflected his own training and interpretation of the text. Clear perspectives and dense shadings predominate and characters are sketched as if they were working their way through the mysterious plot of a realist novel, rather than a mystical Persian poem that transformed everyday objects and reality into transcendental metaphors. For more information on the book, please see our Collection Stories section.
