| Sumario: | This illustrated three-volume catalogue of the works of painter & engraver William Hogarth was the result of 'Hogarthomania', the enthusiasm for all his productions which arose soon after his death. The publisher & author John Nichols, assisted by the collector & literary critic George Steevens, published a life of Hogarth & a list of his works in 1781, & as disputes increasingly arose over the genuineness of some of the prints attributed to him, enlarged versions appeared in 1782 & 1785. This work, published between 1808 & 1817, is the last in the sequence of Nichols' works on Hogarth, & remains a useful source for art historians & anyone interested in the cultural life of the eighteenth century. Volume 3, published seven years after Volume 2, contains further plates, critical essays, & a 'key' to the scenes in Hogarth's prints allegedly derived from classical sources. |
