William Blake was an English poet, engraver, typographer and painter whose work decisively shaped the Romantic era. Largely ignored during his lifetime and beset by financial difficulties, he became known for integrating text and image, developing a personal symbolic universe in his engravings and illuminated books. His best-known poetic work collects Songs of Innocence and of Experience, in which he criticizes social injustice, power and religious hypocrisy, while expressing a mystical and libertarian ideal. Artistically trained as an engraver and having attended the Royal Academy, Blake early drew on classical and biblical references but reworked those traditions into an original language that privileges the imagination as a creative force. Later works, such as the so-called “Prophetic Books,” and his illustrations for texts like the Book of Job and his attempts on Dante’s Divine Comedy, show his ambition to unite text and image in a total expression. History has rehabilitated Blake: he is now recognized as a seminal figure in British poetry and the visual arts, influential on later generations and the subject of honors and critical study. His legacy endures in the symbolic power of his images and the visionary intensity of his poetry.
