EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases William Blake's masterpiece, "The Great Red Dragon and the Beast from the Sea". Created in 1805, this pen and ink with watercolor over paper composition is a testament to Blake's extraordinary talent. Measuring 40.1x35.6 cm, it is housed at the prestigious National Gallery of Art in Washington DC. In this awe-inspiring artwork, we are transported into a realm of mythical creatures and biblical symbolism. The imposing figure of the Great Red Dragon dominates the scene with its fiery red scales and menacing presence. Its multiple heads adorned with horns evoke both fear and fascination. Beside the dragon stands the Beast from the Sea, another enigmatic creature that embodies chaos and destruction. With its grotesque features and monstrous form, it perfectly complements Blake's intricate depiction of evil forces. This illustration draws inspiration from the Book of Revelation in the Bible, capturing an intense battle between good and evil. It serves as a reminder of humanity's eternal struggle against temptation and sin. Blake's meticulous attention to detail brings this fantastical world to life - every stroke conveys emotion while each color choice enhances our understanding of these mystical beings. "The Great Red Dragon and the Beast from the Sea" is not just a work of art; it is an exploration into spirituality, mythology, and human nature itself. This print invites us to delve deeper into our own beliefs as we contemplate its profound message.
