Description: | AFTER BLAKE, William; (English; 1757-1827) CRE BUTTS, Thomas Based closely on Blake's pen and sepia wash over pencil drawing of the same title now in the National Museum of Wales, Cardiff. The engraving is in fact by Blake's patron Thomas Butts and his son of the same name, probably with guidance from Blake. As Robert
N. Essick says, 'Blake apparently lent or gave this drawing to Butts, who executed the plate, perhaps with Blake's assistance. The vast majority of the etched and engraved lines in the print suggest the hand of an amateur, but it is possible that Blake helped to "lay in" the basic outlines that carefully follow his drawing.' | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | CHRIST : MICHAEL : TRAMPLING : SATAN : BUTTS, THOMAS : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
