About this title

Synopsis

A major exhibition catalog on the work of William Blake (1757-1827), printmaker, painter and revolutionary poet of the prophetic books. The catalog explores the influence on Blake of the master artist-printmakers at the beginnings of the Renaissance, and the inspiration he brought to the young artist-printmakers who gathered around him in the last years of his life, including Samuel Palmer, George Richmond and Edward Calvert.

About the Author

Michael Phillips is currently writing a biography of William Blake in Lambeth during the anti-Jacobin Terror in Britain, entitled Blake and the Terror.

He was guest curator of the William Blake Exhibition that opened in Paris at the Petit Palais from 1 April to 28 June 2009 and editor of the catalogue. He was also guest curator of the major Blake exhibition at Tate Britain and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, 2000-2001, and is currently guest curator of the Blake exhibition opening in December 2014 in the new galleries of the Ashmolean Museum of the University of Oxford, William Blake, Apprentice & Master, where Blake's printmaking studio at No. 13 Hercules Buildings, Lambeth, will be recreated.
