"Satan Smiting Job with Boils" is a monotype print by the English poet, painter, and printmaker William Blake, created circa 1826 as part of his Illustrations of the Book of Job series. This work is one of a collection of 21 engraved prints that Blake produced to illustrate the biblical Book of Job. It is particularly notable for its depiction of the moment when Satan, having received God's permission to test Job's righteousness, afflicts Job with painful boils, a scene described in the Book of Job, Chapter 2, Verse 7.

The image is rich with symbolic elements and reflects Blake's intricate style and his interest in themes of innocence, suffering, and redemption. In the print, Job is seen sitting in anguish as Satan, characterized by Blake with a dramatic and menacing presence, strikes him. The work is emblematic of Blake's engagement with theological and moral questions, as well as his exploration of the nature of evil and the human response to suffering.

As part of the Illustrations of the Book of Job, "Satan Smiting Job with Boils" is considered one of Blake's masterpieces in his later years. The series was highly regarded for its profound expression and was one of the few commercial successes during Blake's lifetime. The print is held in various collections, including the British Museum and the Fitzwilliam Museum, and continues to be the subject of scholarly study for its artistic and literary significance.

Blake's unique technique of combining painting and relief etching to create his prints adds to the distinctiveness of this work. His monotypes are characterized by their luminous quality and the depth of their textures, which Blake achieved through his innovative printmaking process. "Satan Smiting Job with Boils" stands as a testament to Blake's visionary artistry and his deep engagement with the spiritual and existential questions that permeate human experience.
