The works of William Hogarth : containing one hundred and fifty-eight engravings
A compilation of engravings after William Hogarth (1697-1764), published in London by Thomas Tegg in 1824 with a Glasgow co-imprint, for a general reader interested in eighteenth-century manners. The plates are rotated on the page and show crowded interiors and street scenes of London society, with tightly grouped figures, props and expressive gestures that suit satirical or narrative compositions.
