This print showcases William Blake's "On Another's Sorrow" an illustration from his renowned collection, Songs of Innocence and of Experience. The artwork, created between 1789 and 1794, beautifully combines relief etching with pen and watercolor on paper. Measuring at a delicate size of 11.4x7 cm, this masterpiece is housed in the prestigious Yale Center for British Art as part of Paul Mellon's generous gift to the institution.

The illuminated illustration features intricate foliate motifs surrounding the text, enhancing its visual impact. The carefully crafted verses add another layer to the artwork's meaning, inviting contemplation on the interconnectedness of human suffering. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are reminded not only of Blake's poetic genius but also his ability to capture complex emotions through art. This image serves as a testament to his enduring legacy as one of England's most celebrated artists.
