Elizabeth Mann, Postgraduate Research Associate in Prints and Drawings at the Yale Center for British Art, will present Beyond Britain: “America, a Prophecy” on Tuesday, November 4, 2025, from 12:30 to 1:00 pm.

This focused talk offers an in-depth exploration of William Blake’s America, a Prophecy, examining the themes of oppression and resistance that run through the artist’s visionary work. Mann will discuss how Blake’s poetic and visual language captured the spirit of revolution and reflected the political and social upheavals of his time.

The event will be held at the Yale Center for British Art, 1080 Chapel Street, New Haven, Connecticut. Admission is free, and no registration is required.
