Illustration to Book of Job 

William Blake’s *Illustration to Book of Job* depicts a scene of divine judgment. Job, the patriarch of the Old Testament, is shown naked and bound, his face turned up towards a fiery heaven. Three figures kneel before him, their hands extended, their faces filled with a mix of pity and judgment. Blake's dramatic depiction of Job's suffering captures the central themes of the Book of Job – the nature of suffering, the existence of God, and the limits of human knowledge.
