William Blake (1757-1827) fue un poeta, pintor y grabador inglés, figura clave del Prerromanticismo, reconocido por su misticismo, sus visiones y su obra que fusionaba texto e imagen, como "Cantares de inocencia y experiencia", aunque incomprendido en vida, su obra fue revalorizada póstumamente, influyendo profundamente en el arte y la literatura posteriores, destacando por su crítica a la autoridad y defensa de la imaginación como existencia humana.
