Behind the scenes the indefatigable members of the Blake Archive are preparing a batch of separate plates for future publication. In general, I would define separate plates as plates not published as illustrations in books, such as “Chaucers Canterbury Pilgrims” and “Albion Rose.” Each plate may have several states, or stages of execution—”Albion Rose” has two, so we’ll publish an impression of each. Each state may exist in several impressions (prints made from that state).
