Poet
William Blake began writing at a young age and said he had his first vision, of a tree full of angels, at the age of 10. He learned to write and grew to love Gothic art, which included his unique works. A poet, a painter and a blind man all his life, in his life, Blake found people who loved him late and had a great influence since his death in 1827.
