EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Water, thou waterest him with tears" we are transported into the imaginative world of William Blake. The image is plate 2 from his renowned series, "The Gates of Paradise" created between 1818 and 1825. Blake's mastery as an engraver is evident in this intricate work, measuring a mere 8x7.2 cm. The composition centers around a seated male figure, whose contemplative pose suggests deep introspection. His expression carries a sense of melancholy, emphasized by the flowing tears that cascade down his face. Water takes on a symbolic role here, representing both emotional release and purification. It seems to envelop the figure like a gentle embrace, offering solace amidst sorrow. Blake's use of line engraving adds texture and depth to the image, enhancing its ethereal quality. This print can be found at the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, UK – home to countless treasures of art history. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork captured by Bridgeman Images' lens, we are reminded of Blake's enduring legacy as one of England's greatest Romantic poets and artists. Whether displayed in a gallery or cherished within our own personal collection, this print invites us to delve into the depths of human emotion and contemplate our own relationship with water – both as life-giving sustenance and as an outlet for our deepest sorrows.
