"Satan Before the Throne of God" is a 1825 print by William Blake depicting a scene of the fallen angel Satan before the throne of God. This image is one of a series of 26 prints illustrating John Milton's *Paradise Lost*, a work which explored the fall of man and the rebellion of Satan. The print is notable for its intricate details, particularly the figures of God and Satan, as well as the swirling clouds that fill the upper portion of the scene. The dramatic composition reflects Blake’s interest in the struggles between good and evil.
