The Voice of One Crying in the Wilderness
- Student Commentary:
- In this image from All Religions are One (1970 facsimile), a naked male figure sits upon a large rock. This figure is commonly thought by Blake scholars to represent John the Baptist. His feet are crossed and both of his arms are gesturing to the right. He is surrounded by vines, leaves, and other such items of the natural world. Beneath him lies the caption of the frontispiece, which reads “the voice of one crying in the wilderness.”
