The Owl House: The Patio
The walls around the patio at the back of the owl house are decorated with relief figures from the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam.
The two figures pouring wine into a cup come from quatrain 46:
So when at last the Angel of the darker drink
If Darkness finds you by the river-brink,
And, proffering his Cup, invites your Soul
Forth to your lips to quaff it - do not drink.
