Hogarth was one of the great 18th-century painters, a marvellous colourist and innovator at all levels of artistic expression.

Art historian David Bindman surveys the works of this artist whose wry humour and sharp wit were reflected in his prolific paintings and prints including The Rake's Progress and Marriage-A-la-Mode. Hogarth was also a master of pictorial satire, highlighting the moral and political hypocrisies of the day with delightful detail and comedy - themes that resonate deeply with our times. The artist was a keen observer of class and society; this new edition has been specially updated to include a discussion of Hogarth's many representations of Black people in 18th-century Britain, a subject that has long been overlooked.

Now revised with additional material and illustrated in colour throughout, this is a vivid and incisive study of the man and his art.
