Synopsis
This volume presents Blake's work as he meant it to be seen: a marriage between his visionary poetic texts and his masterly engravings. Here, his work is presented in 366 color and 30 black-and-white reproductions. SONGS OF INNOCENCE, SONGS OF EXPERIENCE, JERUSALEM, MILTON, and, indeed all his poems, are heightened by the accompanying artwork, which both interprets and adds complexity to the oeuvre of this significant poet.

Industry Reviews
"In a succinct introduction, David Bindman, the author of several authoritative volumes on Blake as an artist, tells how Blake, trained as an engraver, invented a technique for printing word and image together, which he called 'Illuminated' printing."
