The Descendants from the East: Blake and India

By Zirui Zhuang

William Blake's works incorporate Eastern elements to challenge Western art, as seen in "The Spiritual Form of Pitt Guiding Behemoth" and "The Spiritual Form of Nelson Guiding Leviathan." These pieces raise questions about the true personality of these 'heroes' and the potential cultural appropriation resulting from the British Empire's presence in India.
