彌爾頓，2卷詩，圖版29
19th century
William Blake was a wild visionary who claimed the ghost of poet John Milton actually inspired him to write this epic poem. In this dramatic scene, a muscular, nude figure—likely representing the artist himself—stretches desperately across a dark, mystical landscape. He reaches out with intense strain, his body taut against a background of swirling red and blue clouds where the name 'WILLIAM' floats like a banner. A single star shines near his leg, hinting at divine guidance. It captures the essence of Romanticism: intense emotion, supernatural visions, and the eternal struggle of the human soul.
