Except for a few loans, most of the work on the walls comes from the Yale Center for British Art’s own collection. One area of the exhibition lets visitors sit and flip through facsimiles of Blake’s works. The exhibition concludes with Blake’s late masterwork, Jerusalem, and his final project: watercolor illustrations for Dante’s Inferno. “Burning Bright”’s curators emphasized that Blake was all about keeping imagination alive. “William Blake: Burning Bright” is on view at the Yale Center for British Art in New Haven through November 30, 2025.
