This illustrated three-volume catalogue of the works of painter and
engraver William Hogarth (1697-1764) was the result of
'Hogarthomania', the enthusiasm for all his productions which arose
soon after his death. The publisher and author John Nichols
(1745-1826), assisted by the collector and literary critic George
Steevens, published a life of Hogarth and a list of his works in
1781, and as disputes increasingly arose over the genuineness of
some of the prints attributed to him, enlarged versions appeared in
1782 and 1785. This work, published between 1808 and 1817, is the
last in the sequence of Nichols' works on Hogarth, and remains a
useful source for art historians and anyone interested in the
cultural life of the eighteenth century. Volume 2 contains a
catalogue of his works, an appendix of anecdotes about some of
Hogarth's subjects, and his essay The Analysis of Beauty.

classical sources.
