"The Grave, A Poem" is an 1813 engraving by the English artist William Blake. The print depicts Blake in a seated pose, holding a pen and gazing intently at the viewer. Blake's signature is visible at the bottom of the engraving. The work is an example of Blake's skill as a printmaker, and is a valuable portrait of the artist during his later years. The engraving is currently held by the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
