EDITORS COMMENTS
Spring, plate 11 recto, from Songs of Innocence, 1789 captures the essence of a whimsical and enchanting season. In this hand-coloured relief etching with watercolour on paper by William Blake, we are transported to a world where nature's beauty intertwines with the innocence and purity of childhood. A little girl stands in a lush meadow surrounded by blooming flowers and vibrant greenery. She gently cradles a lamb in her arms, symbolizing tenderness and compassion. The soft pastel hues used in the artwork evoke a sense of tranquility and serenity. Blake's illustration exudes romanticism as it portrays an idyllic scene that celebrates the arrival of spring. The delicate strokes capture every detail with precision, showcasing his mastery as an artist. This print is part of Yale Center for British Art's Paul Mellon Collection in the USA. It serves as a testament to Blake's timeless talent and his ability to create art that resonates across generations. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the beauty found within nature itself and how it can inspire us to embrace our own inner childlike wonderment. Spring is not just a season; it is an invitation to appreciate life's simple joys.
