Today was the 191st anniversary of the death of William Blake. After some painstaking work, the specific site of his actual burial had been established at Bunhill Fields (where up until now a generic gravestone marked his approximate whereabouts - 70 grave plots away as it turns out). A new memorial has been unveiled today above where Blake's body resides. Bruce Dickinson, frontman of Iron Maiden, was one of those who spoke at the ceremony. Bruce used Blake's painting 'The Ghost of a Flea' as the cover of his solo album 'The Chemical Wedding'.
