Synopsis

This classic poetry, written in 1789, was originally hand colored on each page and is reproduced here in full color for a visually rich experience.

Songs includes his most famous poem, "Tiger Tiger burning bright, In the forests of the night," and many others. Interesting to read, and unique to Blake's poetry in this collection, are that the poems of Innocence are often counter poised with the poems of Experience.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Blake was one of the finest craftsmen of his time, an artist for whom art and poetry were inextricably linked. He was an indepedent and rebellious thinker, who abhorred pretention and falsity in others. His Songs of Innocence are products of this innocent imagination untainted by worldliness, while the Songs of Experience resulted from his feelings of indignation and pity for the sufferings of mankind. The Songs of Innocence and Experience , containing some of Blake's finest and best-loved poems, are presented here in the form which best satisfied the high expectations of his poetic and artistic aspirations. The fifty-four plates which Blake originallly etched and coloured by hand are faithfully reproduced with the same delicacy and dimensions as the artist created them.
