Reviews

'Peter Otto's fine essay on Blake's title-pages for Genesis and Susan Matthews' equally compelling piece on Fuseli's illustrations to Cowper's Poems (1806) are standouts here not only because they illuminate the core of the volume's argument but because they test its vulnerabilities.' Grant F. Scott, Review19
