(Images generously made available by the Internet Archive.) "Biographical Anecdotes of William Hogarth, With a Catalogue of His Works" by John Nichols is a historical account likely written in the late 18th century. This work offers not only a detailed biography of the renowned English painter and engraver William Hogarth but also includes a systematic catalog of his prints and designs. The contents highlight both Hogarth's life story and his contributions to the art world, showcasing his unique ability to blend satirical art with moral commentary. At the start of the text, the author introduces the purpose of compiling anecdotes about Hogarth, prompted by the growing interest in the artist's works following the release of Horace Walpole's writings on English painters. Nichols recounts the initial intent to produce a simple pamphlet that grew into a more extensive volume due to accumulating information and anecdotes from various sources. The opening sets the tone for a comprehensive exploration of Hogarth's life, touching on his early struggles, artistic beginnings, and eventual prominence as a significant figure in English art, thereby framing the context for the detailed anecdotes and catalog that follow.
