Condición: Very Good. William Blake Ilustrador. First Thus. Folio. Nine loose prints comprising Blake's illustrations for Milton's Paradise Lost measuring 13 x 17 inches, along with a one-sheet introduction by Henry Rossiter. Each print with a caption. Prints with a mere suggestion of edge-wear; the introductory sheet and three prints with light marginal stains not affecting type or images. Withal, a well preserved set. While "genius" has lost value through hackneyed application, it applies most aptly to both William Blake and John Milton. For Blake to be so moved by Milton's work that he interpreted his poesy with the watercolors reprinted here was provident: untold generations have been inspired by his sublime and idiosyncratic imagination. The prints are readily frameable. A scarce set, especially in this condition. Folio of Loose Prints in Printed Wrappers.

Engraving, by Thomas Butts, after Blake. Laid paper. First and only state. Hand written in ink, upper right corner "Cent quatre vingt septieme 187" A determined Christ walks over the vanquished Satan. This fascinating engraving, after a Blake drawing, depicts a muscular and single-minded Christ with a bow in one hand and arrow in the other walking on the beard and chest of Satan, who despite his lifeless eyes reaches for Christ's bow. Blake's Christ is more reminiscent of Hercules or Gilgamesh than the Christ known to us through church iconography and his Satan reminds us more of Zeus than Christianity's Devil. Archibald Russell in The Engravings of William Blake (Houghton Mifflin, 1912) that this image illustrates a passage in Paradise Lost (Bk.VI, 763), but was an allegory for the triumph of imagination or creativity over reason. Thomas Butts, senior (1757-1845) and junior (1788-1862), were both given drawing and engraving lessons by Blake starting in March 1806. They produced a number of plates from Blake's designs although his level of direct involvement can only be estimated. The present plate was sold by the Butts' descendants at Sotheby's, lot 20, 24 June, 1903. The plate was acquired shortly after the auction by Edward J. Shaw of Walsall. He apparently had printed a number of impressions by December 1903. These are the earliest recorded impressions of this plate (other than a single impression sold with the plate at the auction). The plate remained in Shaw's possession until 1925 when it was sold at Sotheby's (29 July, lot lot158) to Mansfield. The New York dealers E.Weyhe, bought a number of impressions (and possibly the plate itself) as they still had multiple copies for sale as late as 1965. Essick records 18 copies of this print, on various paper types, but no order of precedence is given, and he had not seen any `proof' impressions. Essick The Separate Plates of William Blake.

Condición: Fine. London, William Blake [for John Linnell], 'Published as the Act directs March 8: 1825' [in fact 1826]. An original engraving (printed surface 195 × 148 mm plus the credits, paper size 377 × 271 mm), matted with archival board and behind glass in a simple but apposite polished wooden frame (visible image size 237 × 187 mm, external dimensions 540 × 448 mm). Paper lightly cockled, with a tiny closed tear to the bottom margin of the sheet (well clear of the printed surface); essentially in fine condition. 'William Blake's "Illustrations of the Book of Job" primarily refers to a series of twenty-two engraved prints (published 1826) by Blake illustrating the biblical Book of Job. It also refers to two earlier sets of watercolours by Blake on the same subject (1806 and 1821). The engraved "Illustrations" are considered to be Blake's greatest masterpieces in the medium of engraving, and were also a rare commercial and critical success for Blake' (Wikipedia). Plate 13 quotes Job 38:1-2 and 28 ('Then the Lord answered Job out of the whirlwind / Who is this that darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge . Hath the Rain a Father & Who hath begotten the Drops of the Dew'), and Psalms 104:3 ('Who maketh the Clouds his Chariot & walketh on the Wings of the Wind'). The Blake authority, G.E. Bentley Jr ('Blake Books. Annotated Catalogues of William Blake's Writings in Illuminated Printing .', Clarendon Press, 1977) records that 'According to Linnell's "Job" accounts, 150 "Proof" sets on India paper (watermarked J WHATMAN TURKEY MILL 1825) and 65 on French paper (watermarked J WHATMAN 1825) were printed by Lahee in March 1826. Then the word "Proof" was removed from the plates (though it is still faintly visible on the copperplates and in some pulls), and 100 sets were printed on drawing paper'. The example we have for sale is one of the latter group, printed after the word 'Proof' was removed from the original copperplate.
