In the spring of 1997, the Center celebrated its twentieth anniversary with an exhibition of its incomparable collection of illuminated books, engravings, and drawings by William Blake. The Center’s founder, Paul Mellon (Yale College, Class of 1929), assembled a rich and remarkable group of works over a lifetime of personal involvement with the poetry and art of this romantic paragon. For this comprehensive survey of the collection, several of the Center’s twelve illuminated books were exhibited in their entirety for the first time. These included Blake’s masterwork, the unique, colored copy of Jerusalem, two copies of the pastoral Songs of Innocence, and the prophetic Songs of Experience, Book of Urizen, Book of Thel, and America a Prophecy. Blake’s work as a painter was represented by individual tempera paintings from his series of illustrations to the Bible commissioned by Thomas Butts. A generous selection of forty sheets from the watercolor illustrations to the Poems of Thomas Gray revealed the magnificent range of Blake’s interpretive genius and the brilliance of his watercolor technique. — —
