A Third Testament: Blake (1757-1827) (1974)
1974 · Short film · 28 min
Synopsis
Produced by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation William Blake, the inspired English poet, saw the "Heavenly City" in his imagination, described it, painted it, and, to a great extent, lived in it, only rarely considering earthly scenes and objects. This examination makes clear that while his visionary spirit and bizarre lifestyle kept him poor, obscure, and solitary, they nevertheless filled his days with delight
