Book Description

Excerpt from Catalogue of Books, Engravings, Water-Colors and Sketches by William Blake: Exhibited at the Grolier Club From January 29 to February 25, 1905 This latter exhibition was rich in origi nal designs in water-color, pencil, sepia, etc., but, again, not in Blake's printed works, only nine out of fifteen being shown. This fact is not surprising when it is remembered that up to this time few of Blake's books had come to this country; indeed, few had left the hands of their original purchasers.
