Behold Now Behemoth which I Made with Thee, from Illustrations of the Book of Job William Blake (British, 1757-1827). , 1825. Engraving on wove paper, image: 7 15/16 × 6 in. (20.2 × 15.2 cm). William Blakes engraved illustrations of the biblical book of Job, based on watercolors he made between 1805 and 1810, are considered among his masterpieces. In the prints Blake showed God revealing his powers to Job, who has been struggling to understand the afflictions God has sent him. Biblical quotes and other texts in the margins— which were not part of the original watercolors but, remarkably, were engraved in reverse by Blake directly on the copper plates—amplify the meaning of each of the central images. The artists disdain for organized religion and his belief in imagination and the centrality of poetic vision may have drawn him to the story of Job, who followed religious law too literally before having his own spiritual awakening. In Illustrations of “The Book of Job,” Blake revives a

Lunar-shaped Ring Bezel and Grotesque Figures ca. 1620-30 Noël Rouillard French Although this is a very small print, it has been very finely cut by the artist Noël Rouillard. He was the son of a goldsmith, but it is unclear whether he ever actually worked as a goldsmith himself. He did however publish several print series with designs related to this profession. This print comes from a series of twelve such prints and shows a design for a lunar-shaped ring bezel in its center. Rouillard combined this design with several other motifs such as the fantastical creatures depicted on all four sides of the central motif.. Lunar-shaped Ring Bezel and Grotesque Figures 414303
