Googling Samuel Palmer led to a few interesting things, the trove of Blake images at The Fitzwilliam Museum at Cambridge, especially.
Also at the Fitzwilliam:
William Nicholson's The Girl With a Tattered Glove
-
Blake's Circumcision of Christ (detail):


and his Judgment of Solomon (detail):

The Palmer search also Art42day led to Jacek Malczewski, whose work has some of that Blakean holy madness.

At the Fitzwilliam clicking on the link that reads:
"If the image does not load click this link for a non-Java display"
will lead to a more reasonable image; Nicholson's girl and the compassion and clarity with which she's painted are the better for that.
