10 Shots Of Trees In NZ - Retrospective
The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a green thing that stands in the way. Thus Blake, pithy as usual, wise as ever, in a letter to the Reverend Trusler in May 1789. The rev sounds like a bit of a dope: he'd complained to Blake about some of the illustrations the great visionary had prepared for him and Blake in the letter is giving him a mauling. Great stuff to read. Almost as good as the trees to look at. I think Blake would have shed more than a few tears if he'd ever made it to NZ.
