Reviews
Well, for being the "Complete" graphic works of Blake, it sure leaves a lot out. The illustrations from some whole books of his are omitted (how about both "Songs of Innocence" and "Songs of Experience") furthermore, my favorite of his watercolors, "Satan in His original glory" is nowhere to be found. Nor should you expect to see "Penseroso & L'Allegro". This is just off the top of my head, I don't even know Blake's paintings very well at all - and I suspect that far more that I've never heard of have also been left out. AND, (brace yourself) THE PHOTOS ARE ALL IN BLACK AND WHITE!!! I'm highly disappointed.**EDIT!!!**Please read the comment to this review by Miss N. Billingsley.
