Hogarth was one of the great 18th-century painters, a marvellous
colourist and innovator at all levels of artistic expression. Art
historian David Bindman surveys the works of this artist whose wry
humour and sharp wit were reflected in his prolific paintings and
prints including The Rake's Progress and Marriage-A-la-Mode.
Hogarth was also a master of pictorial satire, highlighting the
moral and political hypocrisies of the day with delightful detail
and comedy - themes that resonate deeply with our times. The artist
was a keen observer of class and society; this new edition has been
specially updated to include a discussion of Hogarth's many
representations of Black people in 18th-century Britain, a subject
that has long been overlooked. Now revised with additional material
and illustrated in colour throughout, this is a vivid and incisive
study of the man and his art. With 172 illustrations in colour
