Blake seems to have painted no fewer than three other versions of ‘The Parable of the Wise and Foolish Virgins’ before that commissioned by Lawrence. The first was one of the series of biblical subjects painted for Thomas Butts and was apparently delivered to him on 12 May 1805; it is now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York (Butlin no.478, colour pl.566). The second was painted for John Linnell, according to William Rossetti in 1822, and is now in the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge (Butlin no.479, colour pl.567). A close variation of this was painted for William Haines a year or two later and is now in the Yale Center for British Art, Paul Mellon Collection, New Haven (Butlin no.480, colour pl.568). As well as this copy after the Lawrence version there is a copy seemingly in the same hand of the second version, that painted for John Linnell, in the Santa Barbara Museum of Art (see Alfred Moir, ed., European Drawings in the Collection of the Santa Barbara Museum of Art, 1976, p.126, repr.; also repr. Keynes Bible 1957 no.130e in mistake for the Yale Center Version). Both can be attributed, for stylistic reasons, to John Linnell or one of his family or pupils; Linnell is known to have trained his pupils, who included a number of his sons, by setting them to copy works by Blake. The reference by Bentley (1961, p.400 n.2) to Miss Carthew as being the granddaughter of John Poynder is a result of a misreading of the Tate Gallery exhibition catalogue of 1913, which refers to the Lawrence watercolour, then in the collection of the Poynder family, as another version of that lent to the exhibition by Miss Carthew.
