in his sixties, Blake gave up poetry to devote himself to pictorial art. In the course of his life, he produced hundreds of paintings and engravings, many of them illustrations for the work of other poets, including a representation of Chaucer's Canterbury Pilgrims, a superb set of designs for the Book of job in a series of illustrations of Dante, on which he was still hard at work when he died.
