Is this a good purchase?

It says it right there. “Illuminated” means even the lettering is illustration

As long as you're in for the art more than the poetry I'm sure it will be. Otherwise, you may just hope that the image quality is good enough.

definitely because blake was as much or more a visual artist as a poet and so the pictures are just as valuable as the poems

Definitely not. Why buy a book already available freely in public domain? You're a consoomer and an idiot for mkaing thread.

Yeah, blakearchive has the illuminations but unless you have a large screen (i.e. certainly not a laptop) they're pretty annoying to read.

i have that edition. it's pretty good, but i still want it to be bigger
also a warning, i am pretty sure i have seen two versions of that book with different quality paper, one glossy and one matte, so if you get the choice have a look at it first.
