Description

William Bell Scott, 
Scottish 1811-1890- 

The Garden of Eden; Angel; The Nativity; and There shall be no more death...; 

etchings on paper, each after William Blake, each signed 'W.B Scott' (within the plate, lower right), and 'William Blake, inv:' (within the plate, lower left), 22.7 x 16.4 cm. and smaller, four (4). 

Provenance: 
Private Collection, UK. 

Note: 
Working against the backdrop of the Pre-Raphaelite movement, Scott was closely associated with various prominent artists of the Victorian period, including Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1828-1882) and Arthur Hughes (1832-1915). He worked as the Principal of the Newcastle School of Art between 1843 and 1864, and, in this capacity, was one of the first artists to record the development of the Industrial Revolution, which, over the course of the 19th-century transformed the city of Newcastle. His oeuvre was varied and he executed a large body of works exploring historical and religious themes, as well as the industrial revolution and modern society. 
The present works exhibit Scott's skill as an etcher, depicting scenes after Blake's own original illustrations.
