"Anecdotes of William Hogarth presents a fascinating autobiographical look at the notorious English satirical artist. William Hogarth (1697-1764) was a painter, printmaker, critic, and cartoonist. He is best known for his painted and engraved series A Harlot's Progress, A Rake's Progress, and Marriage A-la-Mode. These acerbically satirical and strongly moralizing works were mass-produced and widely disseminated as prints during his lifetime. This made Hogarth one of the most popular and significant artists of his generation. Lending further insight into the life and career of the renowned artist, this volume presents Hogarth's colorful autobiographical writings, supplemented with his own descriptions of his prints and an explanation of the narrative and meaning of his famed series Marriage A-la-Mode. An introduction by Martin Myrone, lead curator of British art to 1800 at Tate, contextualizes and expounds on these texts."--taken from front cover flap.
