About this product

Product Information

William Blake has become one of the English-speaking world's renowned poets and artists. His writings are taught frequently in schools and studied intensively by scholars. During the last fifteen years, exhibitions of his art in London, Toronto, New Haven, and Tokyo have attracted large and ardent crowds. His brief lyric 'The Tyger' may be the most anthologised poem in the language. But such fame was not always Blake's lot. In his own life, his works were hardly known beyond a small band of patrons and connoisseurs. Throughout the last century and the early decades of our own, Blake's writings were kept alive by a handful of enthusiasts. An equally small number of collectors treasured Blake's prints and drawings. Among this latter group was the great American bibliophile Henry Huntington. He began to acquire for the new institution some of Blake's rarest and finest works, both visual and verbal. By the time of his death in 1927, Huntington had created one of the world's great Blake collections, particularly notable for the way it represents the full range of Blake's endeavours in many media.

Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages. I’ll definitely make another purchase soon! Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!

WONDERFUL book! Better than described, in just like new condition [not just good]. Packaged very carefully, shipped very securely. Great seller, would buy from again in a heartbeat! No communication occurred, but I imagine it would have been as good as the rest of their customer service. Very happy with purchase, thank you very much!
