Pages : 296
Book Description
This carefully crafted ebook: "The Drawings and Engravings of William Blake (Fully Illustrated)" collects the some of the best of William Blake's unique and evocative artwork. William Blake (1757 - 1827) was an English poet, painter, engraver; one of the earliest and greatest figures of Romanticism. His work was filled with religious visions rather than with subjects from everyday life. Blake's fame as an artist and engraver rests largely on a set of 21 copperplate etchings to illustrate the Book of Job in the Old Testament. However, he did much work for which other artists and engravers got the credit. Blake was a poor businessman, and he preferred to work on subjects of his own choice rather than on those that publishers assigned him. Blake is acclaimed one of England's great figures of art and literature and one of the most inspired and original painters of his time.

Pages : 239
Book Description
Sung closely examines William Blake’s extant engraved copper plates and arrives at a new interpretation of his working process.

Book Description
FOR the sale of the Linnell collection of drawings, prints and books by Blake, the great room at Christie's was full to overflowing. It was March of 1918. Copies of the Songs of Innocence, of the Marriage of Heaven and Hell; the set of water-colour designs for The Book of Job; the famous century of Dante illustrations; single drawings and rare prints; all were fetching or going to fetch hitherto unparalleled prices. Competition ran high, the excitement of the bidders was infectious. In the middle of the sale Lot 171 was announced; and observers on the edge of the crowd could see, lifted high in the hands of the baize-aproned, impassive attendant, a human mask, conspicuous in its white plaster...
