Satan Going Forth from the Presence of the Lord

This Atelier Edition begins with William Blake's 1825 engraving, Satan Going Forth from the Presence of the Lord. As one of the English Romantic master's celebrated illustrations for the Book of Job, the original monochrome plate captures a moment of sublime, terrifying power. Blake renders Satan as a classical hero cast out from a divine light, his form embodying a potent mix of beauty and wrath against a backdrop of celestial architecture and spiraling stars.

This exclusive Surrealium Atelier Edition is a contemporary AI-assisted color interpretation of Blake's masterwork. We worked with Blake's original lines to introduce a new, visionary palette inspired by early Renaissance tempera paintings. Luminous gold, deep lapis blue, translucent rose, and dramatic flame orange bring a new dimension to the composition, transforming the engraving's stark contrasts into a vibrant, dreamlike vision. This specific color interpretation is available only through Fable.

An archival fine-art print or gallery canvas of this unique edition can be purchased by anyone, with no subscription required. For Fable members, this work also serves as a starting point for further customization using our studio tools.

Each piece is made to order in the EU as an archival giclée print, using vibrant, lightfast pigment inks on heavyweight, museum-grade matte paper. This contemporary edition is developed and presented by the Surrealium atelier, based at Kastellet, a 17th-century fortress in the Stockholm archipelago.
