William Hogarth (1697 - 1764) was born in London, to a
lower-middle-class family with a schoolteacher father.
During his youth he took up an apprenticeship with an engraver
and goldsmith, but did not complete the apprenticeship. His father
underwent periods of mixed fortune, and was at one time imprisoned
in lieu of outstanding debts.
Influenced by French and Italian painting and engraving his works
are mostly satirical caricatures. He began to produce his own
engraved designs in about 1710. He later took up oil painting,
starting with small portrait groups called conversation pieces,
going on to create a series of paintings satirising
contemporary customs, but based on earlier Italian prints, of which
the first was 'The Harlot's Progress' (1731), and perhaps the most
famous 'The Rake's Progress'. His engravings were so
plagiarised by Thomas Cook amongst others that he lobbied for
the Copyright Act of 1735 as protection for writers and artists

of a Dr. Webster, Hogarth had travelled to The White Hart Inn, St.

on his way to trial in London, after the failure of the '45
Rebellion. Lovat was found guilty and executed on Tower Hill on
April 9th 1747, the last person to be beheaded in England. Hogarth
shows him here seated in a large, carved armchair, counting off on
his fingers the Highland chieftains whom he thought would fight
against the Hanoverian dynasty occupying the British throne(Heath

FOUR STAGES OF CRUELTY Set of 4 plates
Each print depicts a different stage in the life of the
fictional Tom Nero. Beginning with the torture of a dog as a child
in the First stage of cruelty, Nero progresses to beating his horse
as a man in the Second stage of cruelty, and then to robbery,
seduction, and murder in Cruelty in perfection. Finally, in The
reward of cruelty, he receives what Hogarth warns is the inevitable
fate of those who start down the path Nero has followed: his body is
taken from the gallows after his execution as a murderer and is
mutilated by surgeons in the anatomical theatre. wiki

earlier Boydell Folio. These engravings were executed and published by
Cook between 1796-1803. They are the same size as Hogarth's original
engravings, but are not from Hogarth's plates. Thus, they are
earlier engravings than the Heath edition, but they are Cook's
interpretation of Hogarth's works all sulky people are rendered

Enthusiasm Delineated
Isaac Mills was commissioned by John Ireland to
engrave a copy of Hogarth's original Enthusiasm Delineated. The
work, a satire on the emphatic and emotionally-charged nature of
Methodist preaching, was also intended to address recent discussion
of the subject of 'enthusiasm' in art after a publication by
Reynolds. Hogarth's plate was never published, perhaps owing to
concerns amongst his friends in the clergy that the print might be
seen by many as an attack on religion more generally. As a result,
Hogarth dramatically reworked the plate and issued it instead as
'Credulity, Superstition, & Fanaticism: A Medley.' . It
ridicules secular and religious credulity, and lampoons the
exaggerated religious "enthusiasm" of the Methodist movement. Scarce Edition:Isaac Mills after William Hogarth
