William Blake: Burning Bright

Published on August 29, 2025

One of the most compelling figures in the history of British art and poetry, William Blake (1757–1827) expressed his radical perspectives on religious belief, politics, and society through highly original illuminated books, watercolors, paintings, and poetry. This exhibition showcases the Yale Center for British Art’s impressive collection of works by Blake, with special focus on the inventive hand-printed publications that bring to life his poetry and prophecies.

The exhibition runs from August 26 – November 30, 2025 at the Yale Center for British Art, 1080 Chapel Street, New Haven, Connecticut.
