THE ROBAÏYAT

by

Omar Khayyam

Marcel Lubineau, Paris, 1957 , in-4° (16.5 x 27.8 cm), 158 pages in sheets under filled cover, in folder and slipcase.

Translated from Persian by Franz Toussaint.

Illustrated book with 20 unsigned color engravings, due to the artist Génia Minache, one on the front cover, one header, one at the end of the volume, and 20 inserts.

Edition printed in 550 copies, here 1/475 numbered copies on pure vellum from Papeteries de Rives. Copy enriched with a rare autograph signed by Genia Minache.

High volume of freshness, close to new.

Russian-born painter, graphic designer and sculptor Génia Minache used her French name, rather than the Russian name Zhenya Minash, for most of her illustration work. Daughter of the St. Petersburg architect Sima Isaakovich Minash (1877-1945), she settled with her family after the 1917 revolution, first in Prague, then in Paris. In the early 1930s, she studied at the École Nationale des Arts Décoratifs, painting mainly in gouache and watercolor in an Art Nouveau style. In 1931, she participated in the exhibition of the Art section of the Association of Russians Graduates of Higher Educational Institutions Abroad (OROVUZ) and won first prize for a sculpture “The Black Thinker”; In 1934, she held her first exhibition at the Bernheim-Jeune gallery. From 1945, she began illustrating books, beginning with a commission for illustrations for Pierre Lou's collection of erotic poetry Les mots de Bilitis; this was followed by illustrations for several other titles including Diderot's Les bijoux indiscrets, Kama Sûtra and Omar Khayyám.
