    If you think this is weird, do an image search on “William Blake artist”.He was, like, a century or more ahead of his time. (IMHO)

    Enlarged image can be found here (along with a description), or at the only work, by this artist, so far, to appear in Mr. Melcher’s blog.Newton (link shows painting’s Wikipedia page) is shown, with a different coloration larger image, and described, by its current-location page.The engraving was just necessary step in producing the only color print on paper (I have no idea what happened to the actual engraving). It is one of the current-location’s 180 artworks, so far, by this artist.A different coloration, click-to-humongous image can be found here. The William Blake Archive (Wikipedia page) says the original owner was Thomas Butts (sorry, couldn’t help myself). This (prolific) artist’s Wikipedia page and collection (even more under Subcategories at each level).
