Painting Description
"Tiriel, borne back to the Palace on the Shoulders of his Brother Ijim, addressing his five Daughters" is a significant work by the English poet, painter, and printmaker William Blake, created circa 1789. This artwork is part of a series of illustrations for Blake's unpublished manuscript "Tiriel," which is considered his first prophetic book, though it was never engraved or illuminated like his later works. The narrative of "Tiriel" draws from Blake's rich mythological universe and explores themes of tyranny, family conflict, and the decline of a once-powerful figure.
The illustration depicts the dramatic moment when the aged and blind titular character, Tiriel, is carried by his strong brother Ijim to confront his daughters, whom he accuses of ingratitude and cruelty. The scene is charged with emotional intensity, showcasing Blake's skill in conveying narrative through visual art. The composition is characterized by its expressive figures and the use of strong lines, reflecting Blake's unique style that combines elements of neoclassicism and romanticism.
As an artist, Blake was known for his innovative techniques in printmaking and for his visionary approach to art and poetry. His works often addressed profound philosophical and social issues, and "Tiriel" is no exception, offering a commentary on the human condition and the corrupting nature of power. Although "Tiriel" was not widely known during Blake's lifetime, it has since gained recognition for its literary and artistic merit, contributing to the understanding of Blake's early development as a radical thinker and creative genius.
The original artwork for "Tiriel, borne back to the Palace on the Shoulders of his Brother Ijim, addressing his five Daughters" is held in a collection at the British Museum, London. It remains an important piece for scholars studying Blake's oeuvre and for those interested in the evolution of English literature and visual arts at the turn of the 19th century.
