Description |
Nash made this wood engraving to illustrate the first English translation of 'Abd-er-Rahman in Paradise' by Jules Tellier, 1928. This story tells of the death of Abd-er-Rhaman in Constantine and his choice of whether to ascend to Christian or Muslim heaven. It describes his journey through Paradise and the Garden of Delights until eventually he becomes bored of pleasure. The tale has a moral twist, the reader is told that at the end “the wisest thing to crave at the end of our mortal journey is ... the stillness of sleep”. |
