William Hogarth: A Study in Art and Satire This updated edition of David Bindman's study on William Hogarth offers a fresh perspective on the life and work of one of eighteenth-century Britain's most celebrated artists. With his wry humor and sharp wit, Hogarth created some of the era's most iconic paintings and prints, including The Rake's Progress and Marriage A-la-Mode. Hogarth was a master of pictorial satire, using his art to highlight the moral and political issues of his time with great skill and comedy. This new edition has been revised to include a discussion of Hogarth's representation of Black people in eighteenth-century Britain, a subject that has long been overlooked in his works. With additional material and illustrated in color throughout, this book provides a vivid and incisive study of the artist, shedding new light on his innovative style and enduring influence.
