EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases William Hogarth's iconic work, "HOGARTH: FOUR TIMES OF DAY. Morning". The steel engraving, created in 1738, beautifully captures the essence of a bustling city street during the early hours of the day. In this thought-provoking piece, Hogarth skillfully combines elements of poverty and daily life to create a powerful social commentary. The architecture of the buildings reflects the English style prevalent at that time, while also highlighting the stark contrast between wealth and destitution. The image portrays a vibrant scene filled with people from all walks of life. Among them is a transvestite figure who challenges societal norms and adds an intriguing layer to Hogarth's satire. The presence of fire in one corner hints at potential danger or chaos lurking beneath the surface. As viewers delve into this artwork, they are invited to contemplate themes such as class divide, urban struggles, and individual identity within society. Additionally, there is an intimate moment captured between two individuals sharing a kiss amidst their surroundings—a reminder that love can flourish even in challenging circumstances. Overall, this print offers a glimpse into both historical context and timeless human experiences through its intricate details and profound storytelling.
