If you are asking what is the symbolism of Blake's poetry, I can answer that one; however, it depends on the poem because Blake uses a range of symbols to represent his themes. Blake is considered one of the major poets of the Romantic Period (1785-1830), which is roughly around the time of the industrial period. Many of the poets who are now grouped under the "Romantics," shared an idealistic view that the human spirit would prevail over the turmoil of that age, or any future age. Revolution was another common theme, and many critics believe that the poets at that time, particularly Blake, were prophets because their poetry often contained warnings about machines replacing a more agricultural lifestyle. If one were to choose a dominant theme for Blake, it might be the imaginative vision that surpasses the common experience. He once said that "all he knew was in The Bible," and so spiritual themes and symbols are often found in his work. "The Lamb" and "The Tyger" are two of the most prominent examples; these poems are often juxtaposed when teaching his work to demonstrate his observations about the power and contradictions of a creator who could create both such meek and fierce creatures. One could argue that these animals also symbolize contradictions in human nature, especially since Blake and his contemporaries believed in Transcendentalism or the idea that God exists within all living things. Because Blake is often called a poetic prophet, his use of spiritual language and symbols may be considered part of his prophecy.
William Blake believed in the power of imagination and creativity as pathways to spiritual and artistic truth. He rejected traditional religious hierarchies and structures in favor of a personal and direct connection to the divine. Blake's works often explored themes of innocence, experience, and the duality of human nature.

Not only that, and by the way, pictures doesn't have an apostrophe because it's a plural, not a contraction or ownership. Grr, that annoys me... No offence, by the way :)
Oh, and he drew pictures. As in, he drew pictures to...
Uh, Blake was a revolutionary. This random banter scarcely does him any justice. He was born in 1757, in London, England, and died (of unknown causes) in 1827. He was a magnificent writer, specializing in trochaic meter. Yes, he indeed illustrated his illuminated texts, but his printing method was extremely difficult, tedious, and downright ingenious. He would use an antacid agent to paint his verses on sheets of thick metal. Because he was creating plates for printing, he had to write everything backwards. He would then dip the plate in a vat of acid, which would corrode the surface that did not contain lettering, leaving him with a reusable plate to use to make his bound texts. He made several copies of each of his masterpieces, and would paint them all differently. What is most interesting about his unique illustrations, is that when you compare the copies, his choice of colour and shading evoke different emotional responses and will often give the lines of verse an altered tone. His poetry and his art are utterly spectacular!
