William Blake

Black and white illustration of a biblical scene. A large central rectangular panel contains an illustration. In the illustration, a bearded man sits on the ground, on the right. The man wears a cloth around his waist. He sits next to a stone wall. A woman stands to his left, touching his shoulder. On the left, several people raise their arms. Behind them is a town and a mountain range. The sky is cloudy and dark. The panel is surrounded by a decorative border. The border contains text and two figures at top corners. Two lines of text are above the central panel. Three lines of text are below the central panel. Two small dog-like animals are on either side of the text at the bottom. The bottom text includes a signature. A number "7" is in the top right corner.
