EDITORS COMMENTS
Colinets Journey: Milestone Marked LXII Miles to London captures the essence of 19th-century British agriculture and rural life. This black and white wood engraving, created by renowned artist William Blake in 1821, is a testament to his exceptional talent and attention to detail. The illustration depicts Colinet, a character from Thorntons Pastorals of Virgil, embarking on an arduous journey towards London. With his shepherd's staff in hand, he stands next to a milestone that proudly proclaims the distance - LXII miles - remaining until his destination. Dr. Robert John Thornton's collaboration with Blake brings this pastoral scene to life. The intricate engravings showcase the idyllic countryside landscape as Colinet traverses along a winding road. His stoic expression reflects determination and resilience amidst the challenges faced by farmers during this era. Blake's mastery of capturing human emotions shines through as we witness Colinet's solitary expedition towards progress and opportunity in the bustling metropolis of London. The artwork serves as both a visual representation of rural heritage and an homage to Vergilius Maro Publius' timeless poetry. This remarkable print now resides within the prestigious Metropolitan Museum of Art collection, preserving its historical significance for generations to come. It offers viewers an immersive glimpse into 19th-century Britain while celebrating the artistic genius of William Blake.
