Full Description
Inspired by an 1893 binding of The Poems by William Blake (1757-1827), this design features delicate golden wildflowers on a rich blue background. The original volume, crafted in Britain by Zaehnsdorf bindery, had endpapers made of pink floral silk. Now considered one of the greatest artistic and literary geniuses of the 18th and 19th centuries, Blake embraced the divine imagination, often using flowers as a metaphor for joy.
