This exhibit in Schaffer Library showcased Blake’s illuminated books in a number of contexts. Facsimiles made by the Trianon Press were featured heavily; student essays in the accompanying catalog, often discuss how the choices of binding material or the format of the reproduction affected their encounter with Blake’s work. Each essay addresses the overall themes or imagery of the selected book, some in relation to other works by Blake. Facsimiles from the Manchester Workshop and Granary Books were also on display.
