National Gallery of Art now has some small Blake repros (one of the Great
Red Dragon series) and maybe some others, I can't remember.
(That is the Washington, D.C. gallery, of course).

Sorry that I wasn't able to include this in my forwarded notice about
the NEMLA (northeast MLA) call for papers on Yeats and Eliot. Rachel
Billigheimer said that papers dealing with Yeats, Eliot, and Blake would
also be welcome. Send abstracts or completed papers to her (hard copy),
or call the number listed for her (in Canada).

Thanks to all who've answered my query about affordable reproductions of
Blake's artwork. You're a kind and hospitable bunch, despite what you

To Michael Williams et al.:
I only saw one group-addressed answer to your query about reasonably priced
Blake reproductions, but I was looking for more. Did anyone suggest any
sources further than the National Gallery (that's the one I saw)?
I was wondering, waiting, thinking maybe London's Tate Gallery was a
possibility someone would mention. I know they have a significant Blake
holding. Anyone know whether they sell prints, and if so, what's their
address?

The Huntington Museum in San Marino, California has quite an extensive
collection of Blake's work and would be an excellent source for
obtaining prints.

yes the Tate does sell prints of Blake's work. my wife was there a year or so
ago and she got me one (the judgment of adam, i think), but she said that they
only had three available, including "Pity" and one other besides the one i got.
one does not usually the price of gifts, but i think it was about 20 pounds.

The prints from the Tate are expensive, but old exhibition posters sell for
much less. I have a lovely poster, about 24 x 36", with a detail from
_Elohim Creating Adam_, which advertises an exhibition from 1978. I bought
it at the Tate in 1988 for 50 pence. (The tube I bought to carry it home
cost more.) I doubt that they still have any, but consider this a reminder
that exhibition posters are often cheaper than "art prints" and still look
great when framed, if you don't mind the information printed on them. (I
have a similar poster of the frontispiece to _Europe_ from the Fitzwilliam
in Cambridge.)
Both the FItzwilliam and the Huntington from time to time publish Blake
calendars at reasonable prices, considering you get 12 prints for less than
$20. When the year is over, you could detach the prints and frame them.

Don't forget all the Blake calendars that have been published in the
last few years by the Huntington, the Tate, etc. When the calendar is
out of date you still have 12 posters to mount and frame.

How does one obtain one of these calendars without actually walking through
the doors of the Huntington, the Tate? Any other way to get these calendars?

Greetings from London. I don't think the Tate has many, if any, Blake
prints at the moment. I was there a couple of weeks ago. I will call them
and ask.

Dear Blakeans:
A preliminary archive of postings to the Blake list can be
discovered at the URL:
http://www.bookport.com/Publishers/1887164/indexBlake.html
A few caveats
apply. It only contains postings since early July 1995. The postings are
archived in "digested" ASCII-only format. Eventually, I'll put up a complete
archive, preferably in HTML format.
Yours,

I got my 1995 Huntington calendar at Rizzoli's bookstore in Chicago, which
I believe is a national chain. Any art-related store, such as a museum's
gift shop, will usually carry publications and prints from other museums.
You could also try the catalogs from the Metropolitan and the Boston Museum
of Fine Arts, though I don't remember actually seeing any Blake material in
those.
