in a rocking chair on the edge of time, this painting an overture to freedom, a ladle of love, a luminous nest of linking ladders. Each level going up united. It's for to cherish this visual calmness as Blake's visionary glory. While his poetic prophecy may seethe with crackling doubt and dissent, revolutionary odes, contentious acts of history and deceit, This, the first painting with his name spelled out. Blake fondly calls these sweet colors "illuminated paintings" where he lays out his revolutionary love in peopled play. It's as though we're inside an urban subway station looking up. With Blake, it’s always some kind of looking. People and how they do what matter in Blake’s sight. Here, people spread about touching everywhere in the kind of gentle that cooperation brings. Fallen warriors in medieval garb, nude woman pointing to this poem. Women reading, consoling, kinding. This poetic prophecy one of Blake's cosmic mythologies: Orc's refulgent passion grazes Urizen's linearity. Blake charts a new course for mental liberation. The newspaper-like headline compels because it hearkens a linking, a jumping up above and caring down below. The prophetic poem contains fierce strife among nations and type. But this sweeping image unfolds sweet closeness. A new, all American revolutionary delight. As Blake writes: "the fair Moon rejoices in the clear & cloudless night." And what a new light! How lovely the people together democratic, concentrating in peace, as though Thomas Paine bathed them in common sense, and faith, hope, and charity. Aware of the novelty of cultural freedom, Blake affirms, "Let the inchained soul shut up in darkness and in sighing, Rise and look out, his chains are loose, his dungeon doors are open. Like Walt Whitman, for Blake, the sacred "loom’s loom," the center sphere, this image affirms a new vision of democracy, of human affairs: a belief that “For everything that lives is holy, life delights in life.” / Public

Wearing poppies to remember the war dead comes from the poem In Flanders' Fields by Lieutenant-Colonel John McCrae which concludes with the line "We shall not sleep, though poppies grow, In Flanders fields".
