William Blake timeline — an information visualization experiment

I created a visual timeline of William Blake’s life

This is James / creating

I’m a huge fan of William Blake. As an information visualization experiment I decided the make the timeline below. My original intention was to make all the images in the correct order, and corresponding to the dates on the timeline. However, that didn’t work.

There is a lot I’d like to change about this but I don’t want to spend too much time on this because it was just an experiment.
