William Blake
William Blake is an English poet, painter and printer. Mostly unrecognized during his lifetime, Blake is now considered a well-known figure in the history of the poetic and visual arts of the Romantic period. Twentieth-century critic Northrop Frye argued that what he called his prophetic works constituted "the least readable part of poetry in English that is commensurate with its value." His visual arts led 21st-century critic Jonathan Jones to declare him "the greatest artist England ever born". In 2002, Blake ranked 38th in the BBC's 100 Greatest Britons While he lived in London all his life, except for three years at Felpham, he produced a diverse and symbolically rich volume of work, encompassing the imagination as "the body of God" or " human existence ".
