Description
Excerpt from William Blake: His Life Character and Genius
The family was originally settled in Somersetshire, to which county Admiral Blake belonged; but one branch of it subsequently migrated to Wilts, and it was from this branch that the poet was descended. In a work on Blake''s art, upon which I am now engaged I propose to give as full details of the pedigree as can be obtained.
The portrait of Blake given as frontispiece is a photographic reproduction of the miniature from the life'' by John Linnell.
