EDITORS COMMENTS
"Amidst the serene beauty of nature, a couple finds solace and joy in each other's company, as they partake in a romantic picnic under the shade of a grand old tree. The scene is set to the rhythm of Omar Khayyam's timeless verses, "A Book of Verses underneath the bough, A Jug of Wine, a Loaf of Bread-and Thou," which echoes the simple pleasures of life and the deep connection between two souls. The couple, dressed in elegant early 20th-century attire, seems lost in their own world, oblivious to the passing of time. The man, with a thoughtful expression, pours wine into two glasses, while his companion, her eyes sparkling with delight, reaches for a slice of bread. The jug of wine, a symbol of shared happiness, sits between them, a testament to their bond. A jester, clad in colorful attire and a jaunty hat, adds a touch of whimsy to the scene. His lute in hand, he strums a melody that resonates with the couple's blissful moment. The wilderness around them, with its vibrant foliage and the sun casting dappled shadows, completes the picture of paradise. This moment, frozen in time, is a poignant reminder of the power of love and the simple joys of life. Omar Khayyam's words, "Oh Wilderness were Paradise enow!" echo the sentiment of the couple's contentment, as they revel in the beauty of their surroundings and the company of each other." Date: 1901.
