PREFACE
The Handlist was compiled by Mr. Richard Morgan of the staff of the Department of Prints and Drawings, working largely from a list of press-marks (under subject headings such as those at the beginning of Part 1, e.g., ‘Engravings by Blake’) without title, supplemented by references chiefly to Binyon and Russell. I have identified prints and drawings with information beyond what is given in Binyon and Russell*↤ *The doubts as to authenticity expressed in this Handlist are those of GEB, not of the Print Room staff. and amplified descriptions such as ‘Figure studies’. In general picture titles in quotation marks are Blake’s own, e.g., ‘ “How I pity” ’ written on the design, or contemporary with him, such as ‘ “The Fertilization of Egypt” ’; picture ‘titles’ in lower case letters, such as ‘A female figure walking’, are modern descriptions rather than titles.
The Handlist is presented here with the assistance of Mr. Reginald Williams and with the permission of the Keeper of the Department of Prints and Drawings.
Those who have studied the collection of works by Blake in the past will recognize that this Handlist greatly simplifies and expedites the identification and tracing of Blake’s works.
