Folio. (415 x 325 mm). pp. (ii), viii, 95. Leaf with 'Explanation of the Engravings' recto and verso, printed title, advertisement (pp. iii - viii) and 43 leaves with engravings by William Blake surrounding the text; 21 of the leaves retain the publisher's imprints. Scarlet morocco-backed contemporary moiré cloth boards, gilt ti…tles to front cover and spine. First edition of Blake's illustrations for Edward Young's Night Thoughts. Night Thoughts is a key work in the Blake canon, executed at a crucial point in his career. Sometime in 1795 or 1796 Blake was comissioned by the publisher Richard Edwards to undertake the illustration of each page of Young's bestseller 'Night Thoughts'. It was intended to publish the whole poem of nine nights in installments accompanied by engravings based on Blake's drawings, but Edwards went out of business after the first volume consisting of 4 Nights and the project was never completed. 'Blake has undertaken to make designs to encircle the letter press of each page of Young's Night Thoughts, Edwards the Bookseller, of Bond Street employed him and has had the letter press of each page laid down on a large half sheet of paper. There are about 900 pages - Blake asked 100 guineas for the whole. Edwards said he could not afford to give more than 20 guineas for which Blake agreed. Fuseli understands that Edwards proposes to select about 200 from the whole to have that number engraved (by Blake) as decorations for a new edition.' (Blake Records).

Horizontal tear extending from fore-edge of leaf 49. Dampstain to the upper edge of pp. 51 Watermark of J. Whatman to leaf 35 and 48. Leaf of "Explanation of the engravings" inlaid. In 1797, the bookseller Richard Edwards published the first installment of his new edition of Edward Young's Night Thoughts. A poem in nine parts, the work had already seen many iterations since its initial release between 1742 and 1745. Edwards promoted his unique edition with a titillating prospectus, describing it as "part the first of a splendid edition of this favourite work, elegantly printed, and illustrated with forty very spirited engravings from original drawings by BLAKE." Described as "the most grandiose engraving project of Blake's lifetime" (Bentley & Nurmi, p. 4), the impression was instantly scarce. William Blake (1757-1827) spent nearly two years illustrating the complete Night Thoughts; creating a watercolor design in the margins of every page, amounting to 537 illustrations in total. This was the largest commercial endeavor for which Blake was ever employed. Edwards began the project by having the pages from the first and second editions of the poem glued into windows cut into large leaves of Whatman wove paper. These text pages were positioned slightly off-center to create a lower margin greater than the upper and an outer margin greater than the inner (Bentley notes that the paper was "only marginally larger than the copperplate, and even in untrimmed copies, parts of the platemarks may not appear"). Blake was paid the paltry sum of twenty guineas for his watercolors, presumably because he expected to receive a great deal more for engraving them. Of 537, only 43 were engraved for the first run of the Edwards edition, which spanned four "Nights" of the poem. Despite much anticipation, the project was a complete commercial failure, and no further volumes were released. The flop of the project may have been one of the reasons why Blake decided, in 1800, to move from London to the village of Felpham on the Sussex coast and place himself under the patronage of William Hayley. Today, the vast majority of Blake's Night Thoughts illustrations remain unpublished. The cost of the project, which involved the separate printing of the text and the plates, was evidently too great, and the illustrations were perhaps too lewd for contemporary tastes (Pilkington notes that the work's only impression on the public was to startle the pious with unexpectedly "naked groups"). Additionally, Young's words and Blake's pictures were often in tension with one another. The generality of Young's diction gave Blake considerable freedom in illustrating it, and Blake's ideological supplementals become apparent even with a cursory glance. When Young wrote Night Thoughts in the middle of the XVIIIc, he considered that he was offering "plain truths" with which his readers would agree that reason is man's dominant faculty and rigid moral laws provide punishment for sin. When Blake illustrated the poem fifty years later, it was precise.

Full Morocco. Condizione: Very Good. First Edition. Elephantine folio, 44 by 34 cm. viii, [2], 95, [2] pp. 43 of the pages have Blake's expansive, charismatic illustrations surrounding the text. Four of these are section heads, the balance, being border ornamentation, but even the latter are far more than merely decorative. The…distinctive Blake artwork fires the imagination regardless. In fact, the text, which is framed with ruled lines, seems to cover some of the illustration. Last two pages are the Explanation of the Engravings, which are often not present. The full navy blue morocco is fairly heavily rubbed along the edges, a bit less so, by the joints. Some scattered soiling within, but the pages are generally quite clean. There are a few closed tears, not of great length, and one repaired close tear which was somewhat longer. The Explanation of Engravings leaf has two repaired tears. Notwithstanding these flaws, this is an attractive, appealing copy.

Blake, virtually in a frenzy, completed 537 watercolor designs when he was commissioned to illustrate Young's masterpiece. The publisher only issued the first four 'Nights' and had Blake engrave (and partially etch) 43 plates to test the market.

The publisher only issued the first four 'Nights' and had Blake engrave (and partially etch) 43 plates to test the market. The response must have been poor since no further engravings were requested of Blake. Ironically, today the poet Young, once compared with Shakespeare and Milton, is forgotten save for this edition.
