English Poet and Painter William Blake was born on 27th November, 1757.

During his lifetime his work was went mostly unrecognised and unacknowledged, but he is now acknowledged as one of the most important British artists. This link opens a small gallery of Blake's paintings. More below. picked by pocksucket 1 year ago
