William Blake's engraving, 'With Dreams upon my bed thou scarest me & affrightest me with Visions,' depicts a scene from the Book of Job, showcasing Blake's unique combination of text and image.
This engraving by William Blake (1757-1827) visualises a passage from the Book of Job. Blake, a British poet, painter, and printmaker, is a central figure in the Romantic era. His work often combines visionary imagination with social and religious critique. Blake's distinctive style incorporates symbolic imagery and text, reflecting his unique spiritual and philosophical beliefs. He frequently employed illuminated printing, a technique he developed himself, to merge text and image seamlessly. In this print, Job lies tormented on his bed, beset by nightmarish visions. The composition is divided into distinct zones: the upper portion shows Satan transformed into an angel of light, while the lower depicts Job surrounded by writhing figures and flames. Blake's characteristic line work is evident in the detailed rendering of figures and textures. The text, integrated into the design, reinforces the image's themes of suffering, doubt, and spiritual struggle. The border contains additional text and decorative elements, framing the central scene.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
