EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a dramatic scene from William Hogarth's iconic series "Marriage a la Mode: V, The Bagnio". Painted in 1743, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures 70.5x90.8 cm and is housed at the National Gallery in London, UK. In this particular scene, we witness the Earl lying on his deathbed, succumbing to a fatal wound inflicted by Silvertongue the lawyer. The room is dimly lit by a solitary candle, casting eerie shadows across the countess who stands beside her dying husband. Dressed in her nightdress and wearing a mask to conceal her identity, she appears both guilty and dissolute. The atmosphere is heavy with tension as an escaping lover kneels before them, begging for mercy or perhaps pleading for forgiveness. This moment encapsulates themes of adultery and unhappiness within marriage that are prevalent throughout Hogarth's series. As viewers delve into this intricate composition, they are confronted with questions about love gone wrong and the consequences of one's actions. With every brushstroke expertly executed by Hogarth himself, this painting serves as a poignant reminder of the complexities inherent in human relationships. Thanks to Fine Art Finder's collaboration with www. bridgemanimages. com. , admirers can now own their very own high-quality print of this extraordinary artwork without any commercial restrictions attached.
