EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the title page from William Blake's iconic work, "Songs of Innocence" published in 1789. Measuring 19x13.5 cm, this hand-coloured relief-etched printed plate is a true testament to Blake's artistic genius. Blake, both author and printer of this masterpiece, meticulously hand-coloured each detail with utmost care and precision. The result is a stunning composition that captures the essence of innocence and purity. The image depicts a young girl sitting under a tree, surrounded by nature's beauty. Her posture exudes tranquility as she engrosses herself in the enchanting melodies emanating from her musical instrument. Beside her stands a boy who seems equally captivated by the music. The lettering on the page adds an element of sophistication to the artwork while maintaining its youthful charm. The vibrant colours used in this hand-tinted piece further enhance its visual appeal. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to late eighteenth-century England - an era characterized by romanticism and artistic exploration. It serves as a reminder of our own childhood innocence and evokes feelings of nostalgia. This print not only celebrates Blake's exceptional talent but also invites us to appreciate the power of art in capturing fleeting moments of joy and wonderment. It is truly a treasure for any lover of English art or admirer of Blake's unique style.
