- Student Commentary:
- The dark frontispiece to Blake’s Illustrations to the Bible (1957 facsimile) resembles images of the Virgin Mary and Jesus from Byzantine art. It uses the same gold on the figures, and its iconography is similar, depicting large, solid halos above simplified, stylized figures. Not available at the William Blake Archive. Consult the book in Schaffer Library for a detailed view of the image.
