Title-Page of the Engraved Illustrations to the Book of Job is a 1825 ink by William Blake, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This image shows a framed title page for *Illustrations of the Book of Job*. The design is simple: a boxed border with black text and small sketches of winged figures around the edges. The text reads "Illustrations of the Book of Job" with a decorative "O" in the center. At the bottom, it says "Invented & Engraved by William Blake 1825." The artist used fine lines and shading to create these figures, which look like angels or cherubs. The style feels old-fashioned, with careful detail in the wings and faces. If you like this kind of detailed printing, look up engraving.
William Blake (28 November 1757 – 12 August 1827) was an English poet, painter and printmaker.
