Arabian Nights

Scheherazade saves herself from execution by distracting Sultan Schah-riar with stories, in a collection illustrated by Renâe Bull.

The Irish illustrator René Bull unleashed an exuberant energy in his work that meshed well with the exotic themes and settings of his masterpieces, The Arabian Nights and the Rubaiyat. This new Calla Edition presents 20 full-color plates and nearly 100 black-line illustrations from the original in a distinctive new page design that makes this volume an immediate heirloom for confirmed bibliophiles.
