SynopsisThis text examines Hogarth's career, from his beginnings as a young engraver in the 1720s, through to his rise to fame as a painter & printmaker in the 1730s & 1740s. The book offers an understanding of the breadth of his achievements, showing his brilliance as a graphic satirist, urban commentator, draughtsman, portraitist, & history painter., This beautifully illustrated book examines the whole of Hogarth’s career, from his beginnings as a young and ambitious engraver in the 1720s to his rise to fame as a painter and printmaker in the 1730s and 1740s, and the crystallization of his aesthetic theories in the 1753 treatiseThe Analysis of Beauty. Where previous publications have concentrated on just a part of his career, this book examines every aspect; his remarkable canvases, ranging from elegant conversation pieces to salacious brothel scenes, his vibrant drawings and sketches, and the engraved works for which he is perhaps most famous are all included.
