Items related to Tate British Artists: William Blake
More than 150 years after his death, William Blake (1757–1827) remains a cryptic and controversial figure. Equally gifted as a poet and a painter, he produced work that is as arresting for its beauty as for its strangeness. With this fresh examination of Blake’s unfolding career, William Vaughan presents an artist with a radical and utterly individual vision, who was deeply concerned with the social, religious, and political issues of his age.

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: New. To this day, William Blake (1757?1827) remains a controversial figure, seen as either an inspiring genius or an unsettling eccentric, whose work is arresting for both its beauty and its strangeness. In a study that follows the stages of the artist's development, William Vaughan explores the pictorial power of Blake's art and his 'ability to see things anew, to read new meanings into old forms'.
