§ The New Zealand Set are careful watercolor copies of the central designs of the original engravings, produced by the circle of John Linnell, presented here in faithful facsimile. Butlin noted in the Blake Quarterly: “The long list of color facsimiles produced by the Trianon Press under Arnold Fawcus for the William Blake Trust were above all objects of beauty, recreating as near to perfection as possible Blake’s original achievements.”.
