EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases William Hogarth's iconic masterpiece, "HOGARTH: FOUR TIMES OF DAY. Night". The steel engraving, created in 1738 by the talented artist himself, depicts a scene that is both intriguing and thought-provoking. In this image, we are transported to the bustling streets of an English city during the late hours of the night. Poverty-stricken individuals roam these dimly lit slums, their faces illuminated by lanterns casting an eerie glow. The air is thick with satire as Hogarth masterfully captures the stark contrast between wealth and destitution. Amidst this poverty-stricken backdrop, a fire blazes in one corner while a carriage passes by nonchalantly. Daily life unfolds before our eyes - people going about their routines despite their challenging circumstances. It is impossible not to notice the chamber pot being emptied out of a window above; it serves as a reminder of the harsh realities faced by those living in such conditions. The attention to detail in this engraving is remarkable - every line etched with precision brings forth emotions and tells stories untold. As we gaze upon this print from The Granger Collection, we cannot help but be drawn into Hogarth's world; his ability to capture human experiences so vividly transcends time. This print offers us an opportunity to reflect on societal disparities and appreciate how art can shed light on important issues that persist even today.
