Mr. B
- Title
- Mr. B
- Student Commentary:
- While page 28 from Palmer’s Sketchbook (1962 facsimile) devotes an equal amount of space to words and pictures, it appears to emphasize the people in Palmer’s life. Palmer talks about a Mr. Finch and a “Mr. B,” believed to be Blake. Blake may even be represented in the profile portrait on the right. Blake’s suggestions for the way in which natural forms are represented though lines, quoted here, are also captured in sketches on this page. The two bottom, sideways images are believed to be lions. Not available at the William Blake Archive. Consult the book in Schaffer Library for a detailed view of the image.
