Art and Heritage in Central Europe<\/h1>

William Blake (1757-1827) is a towering presence in British art and literature. In many ways he epitomises our image of the Romantic artist today \u2013 an isolated genius, largely unappreciated in his own time. Living in London, Blake worked as a commercial engraver to support his own creative projects. Often working late into the night, he devised new techniques in printing and painting to fully express his imagination. He saw himself as a prophet, bridging spiritual and physical worlds through his art and poetry. Blake\u2019s work often drew on his radical politics, deep religious beliefs, and personal struggles.<\/p>\n

The exhibition presents a selection of his finest works from the Tate Collection, putting them in the context of a turbulent moment in British art, imagination and history. Blake\u2019s enduring images will be shown alongside works by the artists who most inspired him, including Henry Fuseli, Benjamin West and John Hamilton Mortimer, as well as artists \u2013 such as William Turner, James Berry, Samuel Palmer \u2013 who were inspired by him.<\/p>\n

Curator: Alice Insley (Tate) Co-curator: Csilla Reg\u0151s (Museum of Fine Arts Budapest).<\/p>\n

The exhibition is available at the Museum of Fine Arts in Budapest from 26 September 2025 to 11 January 2026.<\/p>\n
