"Hogarth" by C. Lewis Hind is a biography that examines the life and work of the renowned English painter and satirist William Hogarth, who lived from 1697 to 1764. Written during the early 20th century, this book explores Hogarth's contributions to English art, particularly his role in elevating the status of British painting beyond foreign influences. It delves into Hogarth's unique style, which combined humor, moral commentary, and an acute observation of the social conditions of his time. In this insightful examination, Hind discusses Hogarth's evolution as an artist, highlighting key pieces such as the iconic series "Marriage à la Mode," "The Rake's Progress," and his portraits of notable contemporaries like David Garrick and Peg Woffington. The book reflects on Hogarth's multifaceted talents, portraying him as not just a moralist and satirist but also a skilled painter who created vivid representations of life in 18th-century England. Hind emphasizes that despite Hogarth's contemporaneous reputation as primarily a satirist, his significance as a painter has come to be celebrated, asserting that Hogarth's art remains impactful and relevant even centuries after his death.
