Artist, mystic, poet and craftsman, William Blake had a unique view of the world around him. At the age of eight he saw ‘a tree filled with angels’ and his perception of beauty in an idyllic utopia shines from every luminous detail of his paintings and every line of his poems. Songs of Innocence and of Experience is arguably his defining work. Filled with Blake’s illustrated poems that explore adult themes such as death and social justice, this is a collection of great visual and literary power.
