Originally designed and engraved by Blake for R. J. Thornton's School Virgil. "Beside their aboriginal and intuitive expressiveness, these woodcuts possess another source of charm, - in the poetical and pictorial richness of their subject matter, which offered no temptation to allegory, yet appealed to the artist's faith and native delight in Arcadian simplicity. The motives were simple and highly congenial, and in realising them Blake seems to have drawn on the happy and serene memories of his stay at Felpham, on the Sussex coast, the only years of his life not spent in London, and among the happiest he ever spent. Of all his productions these seem the most satisfying ; and in the history of wood- engraving they are numbered among the precious and far too rare examples of work in which the graving tool has been the direct instrument of an artist's thought, and the woodblock the recipient of his immediate inspiration.
