This copy is unusual and desirable for the extra material from many of Blakeâ€™s most famous commercial engravings as follows: Volume I: Originally bound in opposite pp. 1 but now detached â€˜Guillermo Blakeâ€™ T Phillips Pinx t L Schiavonetti V.A. Sculpt. Frontispiece from the very rare Meditaciones Poeticas 1826 folded three times 8-1/2 x 13-1/2 inches; and 11 additional engravings from the same edition are bound in after the text all folded in order of original appearance and fairly tightly cropped; and a single engraving from The Triumphs of Temper: Flaxman/ Blake Canto I Verse 29 1803 Cadell and Davies.Volume II: After pp. 268 we find the cropped title page from the quarto issue of The Grave 8-6/8 x 13 inches.

Gilchrist was Blakeâ€™s first full-scale biographer. The work was unfinished when he died and largely completed by Dante Gabriel Rossetti who wrote the final chapter from Gilchristâ€™s notes with help from his brother William Michael and also Swinburne whose own book on Blake was the result of his researches when reviewing Gilchristâ€™s book.

Life of William Blake Pictor Ignotus. With Selections from his Poems and Other Writings. Illustrated from Blakes own Works in facsimile by W.J. Linton and in photolithography; with a few of Blakes Original Plates.

18635924London: Macmillan 1863. First edition. Bentley said it better than we can: "Never has an important literary reputation been posthumously established so effectively instantaneously and forcefully. Gilchrist's title 'Pictor Ignotus' had not been mere showmanship. Blake had been unknown and Gilchrist made him sensationally well-known. From 1863 on Blake took an unchallenged place in literary and artistic history as one of the great figures of the Romantic Movement. Gilchrist's biography is still in many respects the best biography of Blake" pp. 12-13. 24 cm; 2 volumes. i-v vi-xv 1-389; i-v vi-vii 1-3 4-268 pages and 66 plates including the "Job" engravings and 16 plates from electrotypes of the copperplates of "Songs of Innocence and of Experience." Text illustrations. Folding plate of Canterbury pilgrims in volume 2. Bound in roughly contemporary red half morocco over marbled boards with gilt-tooled compartments on spine with original gilt-stamped morocco covers laid down on front pastedowns in both volumes. Binding somewhat worn at joints and edges but this is a sound copy internally without blemish. Reference: Bentley Blake Books 1234A. Macmillan hardcover books

Emilia Blake Gowing 1846-1905 "married an actor whose stage name was Walter Gordon in 1887 and worked as an actress and elocutionist; she also did recitations. She published verse and recitations from 1874 plays and fiction. She published three novels of a fantastic tendency in the period: AS CAESAR'S WIFE 1902 BY THAMES AND TIBER 1903 and A KING'S DESIRE 1904. The half-English half-Italian heroine of BY THAMES AND TIBER gets lost in the Roman catacombs and dreams for half the book of the sacrifice of a martyr ancestress in the days of Nero. A KING'S DESIRE is Saharan and Ruritanian: the monarch of a tiny German state loves an Englishwoman of mysterious parentage." - Kemp Mitchell and Trotter Edwardian Fiction p. 157. Most of Mrs. Gowing's books are quite scarce especially her novels.
