Joseph Viscomi’s authoritative, illustrated account of Blake’s “Illuminated Printing,” now online as part of the free William Blake Archive. A must for anyone interested in printing or the graphic arts. And an elegant reminder that sometimes the simplest things about a new medium are the best: “While the text remains the same, the electronic version has 95 illustrations versus 9 in the printed version.”
