A FINDING LIST OF REPRODUCTIONS OF BLAKE’S ART
The following list is not intended as a bibliography of Blake’s art, but rather as an aid to the researcher in finding reproductions of Blake’s works In those books and Journals (about 200 surveyed for this list) usually found in college and university libraries with good Blake collections. I have made no attempt to establish the provenance, date, or medium of each work, and only include this information when necessary for proper Identification. All reproductions listed are monochrome unless otherwise noted. Reproductions are listed by the book (Identified by author’s or editor’s last name and short title) or journal (name; volume, and year) in which they may be found, and located by the plate number (preceded by “pl.”) or by the page (preceded by no abbreviation) on which they appear or are most closely contiguous. Preliminary sketches, proof impressions, and other related materials are listed following the finished engraving or painting with which they are associated. All drawings from Blake’s “Notebook” are reproduced in Keynes’ facsimile of 1935. The list is divided into four main alphabetized sections, covering the illuminated books, illustrations to Blake’s non-illuminated writings, illustrations in series to others’ writings (including book illustrations engraved but not designed by Blake), and all drawings, paintings, and engravings not part of any series.
Part 1: The Illuminated Books
Complete facsimiles listed in Part 1 of the Bentley and Nurmi Bibliography or the recent supplement issued by the Blake Newsletter are not included. Except for Songs of Innocence and Songs of Innocence and of Experience (listed alphabetically by title following prefatory plates), all plates are numbered and, whenever possible, copies identified (in parentheses at end of the entry) according to the Keynes and Wolf Census. The plates in “A Small Book of Designs” and “A Large Book of Designs” described in the Census are here listed as “separate plates” following the entry for the illuminated plate from which they were taken, but of course copy identification for these separate plates refers to the appropriate design book. Plates in the two design books not taken from the illuminated books are listed under the propor title in section IV of this list.
