20132 vols., 8vo., First Edition thus, with a portrait frontispiece and 116 fine watercolour plates in facsimile; pictorial cloth, morocco back, upper board and backstrip lettered in gilt, Commentary Volume in brown cloth, gilt back, the two volumes housed in publisher's buckram solander case lettered in gilt, a fine set. EDITION LIMTED TO 1000 SETS. This splendid FS production reproduces the original watercolours, acquired by Paul Mellon in 1966 and now in the Paul Mellon Collection at the Yale Center for British Art. A number of scholars have written about this work, but Irene Tayler’s 1971 book, Blake’s Illustrations to the Poems of Gray, remains the most comprehensive and compelling reading. Presented here as a separate commentary volume, Tayler’s account tells how the illustrations were produced, relates Blake’s interpretation of the poems to his own ideas, and provides a detailed commentary on each poem.

1813réf. 1092081813. London: Ackermann 1813. Single plate etching on wove unwatermarked paper recently cleaned. § From the second 4to edition this is one of the best known plates in the series. It was designed by Blake and engraved by Luigi Schiavonetti. Bentley Blake Books 435D. "In October 1805 Blake was commissioned by the engraver and would-be publisher Robert H. Cromek to prepare forty drawings illustrating Robert Blair's The Grave a popular "Graveyard" school poem first published in 1743. Cromek planned to select twenty of these designs for a deluxe edition of the poem. In Cromek's first prospectus of November 1805 Blake is named as both the designer and engraver of fifteen designs. Blake etched one image Deaths Door in white-line but Cromek rejected it. The dark power of the white-line print appeals to modern tastes but was far from fashionable in the early nineteenth century. In a second prospectus also of November 1805 Cromek announced that Luigi or Louis Schiavonetti would engrave twelve designs for the new edition. Blake had lost the potentially lucrative commission to engrave his own designs; his relationship with Cromek descended into anger and argument. In spite of their disagreement Cromek included a portrait of Blake as a frontispiece to the volume published in 1808. Cromek promoted the book aggressively and the illustrations to The Grave became Blake's best known work through much of the nineteenth century." The William Blake Archive. unknown

1866réf. 4020London: Basil Montagu Pickering 1866. First edition thus. 8vo in 4s. 172x105mm. pp. xii 108. Original brown cloth paper label to spine. Joint with upper cover split corners and label worn. Internally very good. Front free endpaper is inscribed "Frances Marten 1867 from H.C.R." On the front pastedown opposite is pasted a photograph of "H.C.R." who is Henry Crabb Robinson. The front free endpaper also has the book label of Priscilla and Samuel Meek. This reprint of Songs of Innocence and Experience contains two previously unpublished Blake poems. Two of the other poems were Bowdlerised and have lines replaced with asterisks to spare Victorian sensibilities. Henry Crabb Robinson 1775-1867 a lawyer journalist diarist and a co-founder of London University has been described as one of the best connected of literary men. He "knew almost every British writer of note from Blake Wordsworth Coleridge Lamb Southey and Hazlitt to Gaskell George Eliot and Matthew Arnold". Crabb Robinson's friendship with the elderly Blake was short they met in 1825 and Blake died in 1827 but unsurprisingly the shamanic artist and poet made an enormous impression. In his Diary Letters and Reminiscences. Crabb Robinson's describes his first meeting with Blake: "Shall I call him Artist or Genius—or Mystic—or Madman Probably he is all. He has a most interesting appearance. He is now old—pale with a Socratic countenance and an expression of great sweetness but bordering on weakness—except when his features are animated by expression and then he has an air of inspiration about him. The conversation was on art and on poetry and on religion". Crabb Robinson himself was an old man when this book was published which makes the gift all the more moving as he would have been one of the few people alive to have remembered Blake. Bentley 335A.
