When on the highest lift. . . plate 36 from Milton, a Poem in Two Books by William Blake
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the early 19th century, capturing an enchanting moment at Blakes Cottage in Felpham, West Sussex. The residence of the esteemed artist himself, this humble abode served as a sanctuary where creativity thrived and divine inspiration flowed. As the sun sets gracefully in the background, casting its warm golden hues across the landscape, we are reminded of Blake's romanticist spirit and his deep connection with nature. The ethereal presence of an angel hovers above him, symbolizing his profound artistic vision and poetic genius. The image showcases not only Blake's mastery of sugarlift aquatint technique but also his ability to intertwine visual art with literature seamlessly. Handwriting fills the frame, showcasing verses that transport us into a world where words become poetry and stories come alive. In this intimate glimpse into Blake's creative process, we witness a male author lost in thought as he meticulously crafts his literary masterpiece. This scene serves as a testament to the power of writing and its ability to transcend time and space. With every stroke of his pen or brushstroke on paper, Blake immortalizes himself as one of history's greatest writers. This print is not just an illustration; it is a window into the soulful realm where imagination meets reality—a true treasure for any lover of fine art or literature alike.
