Description: Any collected edition of Hogarth's engravings depends as much on the scope and nature of the written commentary as on the quality of the reproductions. In both respects this volume satisfies the most exacting demands. It beigns with a biographical-critical chapter which discusses Hogarth's position in the art world and public life of the 18th century England. It then explores the foreign influences on his art and the relationship of styles between his paintings and engravings. The commentary following this section explains in detail the story embodied in each print. All of Hogarth's engravings (conceived in groups or singly) are shown: vignettes, conversation pieces, dramatic episodes, polemical or personal satires, tailpieces and even business cards.
