Anecdotes of William Hogarth

Más información sobre el libro

One of the most visible, popular, and significant artists of his generation, William Hogarth (1697–1764) is best known for his acerbic, strongly moralizing works, which were mass-produced and widely disseminated as prints during his lifetime. This volume is a fascinating look into the notorious English satirical artist’s life, presenting Anecdotes of William Hogarth, Written by Himself—a collection of autobiographical vignettes supplemented with short texts and essays written by his contemporaries, first published in 1785.
