«Hogarth the Painter» is the catalogue of the eponymous exhibition by Elizabeth Einberg, published by Tate in paperback (56 pages, in English).
The book surveys William Hogarth's pictorial career from the late 1720s to 1759, when he practically stopped painting. It analyses his role in the formation of the British school in the 1730s and 1740s and his view of the society of his time, with works such as «The Indian Emperor», «Captain Coram» and «Mr and Mrs Garrick».
Published for the Tate Gallery exhibition (4 March-8 June 1997), on the occasion of Hogarth's tercentenary. Includes 31 colour illustrations and 11 in black and white, and a select bibliography.
For those interested in 18th-century British painting and the figure of William Hogarth.
